Rise and fall with every breath. The simplest patient monitor in the room.
Model 2200B
Every small animal case. One machine.
A complete, portable cart-based anesthesia and ventilation system for small animal surgery. Available in a certified MRI-compatible version, with no electronics at all.
The all-in-one system FOR SMALL PRACTICES
Take on any small animal surgery in-house. One cart, every case - built to last decades. MRI-compatible version available.

Optional MRI-conditional models

Fully pneumatic. Zero electronics.
Non-ferrous throughout.
Tested at 3 Tesla.
Most anesthesia machines stop at the door of the MRI suite. Every Mallard comes in a fully pneumatic version with no electronics and no ferrous metal. It goes right into the room, stays close to your patient, and breathes for them through the entire scan. Tested at 3 Tesla.
VENTILATION, BUILT IN
The breath is already on the cart.
Includes a built-in 2400V ventilator, on the same circuit - ready the moment a patient needs a breath.
Visible ascending bellows. The same ascending design trusted in human anesthesia - proven over decades.
Catch a leak by eye. When the circuit leaks, the bellows fail to refill and visibly collapse so you catch trouble immediately.
Less work for the lungs. Engineered to lower breathing resistance, the ascending design lets every breath
come easier, even on the weakest lungs.
come easier, even on the weakest lungs.
Medical Air Add-on. Drive the ventilator with clean, purified Medical Air — a controlled alternative to pure oxygen for longer cases and more sensitive patients.
Precision control
Real knobs,
not a touchscreen.
Engineered for unparalleled reliability and ease of use, boasting a microprocessor-based control system and adjustable flow rate up to 120 Liters per minute.

Engineered for durability
A Mallard from the '90s is still working today.
Built from powder-coated steel and industrial-grade bellows, the 2200B is made to run 20 years and more. In production since 1985 and named the standard of care in Lumb & Jones, it's the machine a generation of veterinarians learned on.

World-class customer service
Free technical help for as long as you own it, direct from the people who built it - one call, and you're running again.
Built for decades
Powder-coated steel and aerospace-grade polymer, engineered from the ground up for decades of service.
Control and safety
Three safeguards.
Each works on its own.
Pneumatic, mechanical and electronic protection. So a single failure never stops the breath.
A breath without power.
Press the pneumatic button and a breath flows straight from the oxygen or air supply - no electronics needed.
Pressure held in check.
An adjustable governor starts releasing at 50 cm H₂O and fully opens by 80 - bleeding off pressure before it can ever reach the lungs.

Alarms that speak up.
Visual and audible alerts the moment anything shifts - a missed cycle, low gas, a loss of power (only for electric version)(only for electronic version).

PRECISION VENTILATION
Quiet enough to think over, strong enough to count on.
Extremely quite & smooth in operation
The Mallards are some of the quietest anesthesia ventilator on the market - tested at just 61 dB on the small animal system and 66 dB on the large animal system, about the level of a normal conversation. The quiet, smooth operation reduces stress in the surgical environment, so your team can communicate clearly and focus on the patient, not the machine.
Rolls to the patient. Locks for the procedure.
On its portable chassis with locking casters, the Mallards moves easily between prep, surgery, and imaging - then locks firmly in place for the duration of the procedure. When the patient can't come to you, from an equine recovery stall to a zoo holding area, the machine goes where it's needed.
No disassembly required for cleaning
The bellows clean in place - no teardown, no removed parts, no service visit. Routine cleaning and maintenance can be handled in-facility by your own qualified techs, which means less downtime and a machine that stays in service, procedure after procedure.

A legacy of durability
For an equine hospital or teaching program, this is a once-in-a-career purchase
A name vets trust
The most trusted name in veterinary anesthesia.
The premium alternatives hide the bellows in a housing and bury the controls in atouchscreen. Mallard does the opposite — and has, since before software ran theoperating room.
