Each PET-250 unit comes with four basket sections, each with bottom floors and four slots for inserting dividers. The unit also
comes with three extender tubes, which have the same outer appearance as the baskets but do not contain a bottom floor.
If the user would like to use the equipment for a very large pet, or a communal process, the user simply places the bottom
basket (with bottom floor) into the unit, then places three extender tubes (without bottom floors) to create a large, tall
containment basket for the pet(s). The variations in compartment configuration are nearly endless.
Pet-400 Compartment Separation Technology

Capabilities
Individual Pet Compartments
Communal
Single-Pet

♦ Capacity: 20 to 400 lb (min—max)


♦ Cycle Time: 20 hours for segregated/
communal cycles
12-20 hours for a single pet
(size-dependent)
♦ Up to 14 compartments (two basket
levels, each with seven optional
compartments)
♦ Optional mini-compartments give up to 24
possible compartments
♦ User determines the size of the individual
compartments
♦ User selects the size of the cycle (low or
high)
♦ Can process a single-pet cycle

 Start the process, and leave!


 Users may run a full level or low level cycle
 The average daily labor per cycle (load, unload, process bone remains for return) is 1.5 hours

The PET-400 dividers can be adjusted to accommodate any size of pet. The dividers
can be completely removed to process a very large pet or communal cycle. A
combination cycle can be processed where select pets are placed in private
compartments, while other pets share a communal space.

S-2500 M-2500 Large Capacity Systems
S-4000 M-4000
Capabilities

* Individual Pet Compartments


Communal
Single-Pet* (horses, etc.)

♦ Capacity: S/M-2500— 500-2500 lb


S/M-4000— 750-4000 lb
♦ Cycle Time: 20 hours
♦ Features removable internal grates that
perform like a basket system to eliminate
lifting and facilitate cleaning
♦ Unit tilts hydraulically to any angle, and
lid fully opens to facilitate loading of
mortalities
♦ User selects the size of the cycle (low,
mid, or high)
♦ Can process a single large animal, such as
a pet horse (minimum weight 500/750 lb)
♦ Units are available as stationary
installations, or in mobile format (on a
trailer)
♦ *Compartment separation technology can
be used with this system for high volume
operations (basket system)

Large Capacity Systems are ideal for


private horse cremations and/or large
volumes of pet mortalities (high volume
crematories, animal shelter contracts,
etc.). The addition of our
compartmentalized basket system allows
for the capability of segregated cycles.

Mobile systems are ideal for co-op/shared


equipment use, services provided on-site,
or on-site disease response to avoid
transporting infected mortalities.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does alkaline hydrolysis work?
Alkaline hydrolysis is essentially an accelerated
version of what takes place during natural
decomposition. A combination of gentle water
flow, temperature, and alkalinity is used to
accelerate the natural course of tissue hydrolysis.
At the end of the process the body has been
returned to its basic building blocks, dissolved in
the water. Remember - the bodies of our beloved
pets are over 60% water to begin with! Similar to
cremation, the only solid remains are the mineral
ash of the bones.

Is there an ash to return to the family as there is


with cremation?
Yes. "Ash" is returned to the family in the same
manner as it is with cremation, but it is in the form
of calcium phosphate. The ash is lighter in color
because there is no carbon discoloration from
burning.

Are the bone remains safe to handle?


Yes. The bone remains (calcium phosphate) are
100% safe, pathogen and disease free. The
Bio-Response system rinses and cools the bones as
part of the automated process. They are safe to
handle with bare hands immediately after the
process. The bones do not require a cooling time
prior to handling, but since this is a water process
they will require a drying time before they can be
processed for return to the family.

Does the system require supervision while in


operation?
No. Once the user has initiated the cycle from the
touch screen, the system will run and complete the
entire cycle automatically. The user may return at
a convenient time to collect the rinsed bone
remains.

Are there any major or long term maintenance


items?
This system can be used for many years without
any major maintenance items. There is no
equivalent to the major re-bricking maintenance
of flame crematories.

How long does installation take?


If the utilities are in place, installation will take
less than one day.
