The Sipper Sack® Animal Watering System is an innovative way to water your laboratory animals.
The Sipper Sack concept is simple - use a sterilized, disposable, plastic sack with a reusable, autoclavable, stainless steel drinking valve for individual cage watering. While a technician transfers animals during the cage change process, the system performs in-room, on-demand sack filling in the change hood's controlled environment. The sack goes into the cage in the same place as a water bottle.

Sipper Sack® Carboy System
Water is supplied to the Sipper Sack Filler through room distribution system piping or a carboy. The Carboy System delivers a specified quantity of house, autoclaved, treated, medicated or reverse osmosis water to the Sipper Sack Filler to fill sacks. This system uses a peristaltic pump and pressure switch to pump water from a carboy to the Sipper Sack Filler. Sacks are filled on demand as the pressure switch controls the pump operation, turning it on and off as needed.
