Algae Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Shawn, Do you have a model/brand? Just not sure I could run this off my Aquacontroller. Then again, I dose in a high flow area. I assume this is a med or lab doser? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hey Shawn, I would be interested in this if you were willing to ship it up to PDX or planning on coming up again sometime. Brand/model info would be appreciated. Thanks! Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I used it for about a year to dose kalk at 120ml/s on my 29gal. Worked great. I've actually used 2 of these. The first one had a metal clasp and rotary that did not like saltwater and kalk. This one is plastic so no problems there. Needs a pumpset - here is 3 of them for 9 bucks http://cgi.ebay.com/3-Dosing-Pump-Drip-Sets-For-$9.00.-All-Brands-Available_W0QQitemZ270354715255QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090308?IMSfp=TL090308225010r38719 I bought 1 pumpset and about 5ft of silicon tubing from diyreef.com when i used this pump. The silicon tubing is what degrades, but it only uses about 6" and that lasts about 8-12 months. The Ross Flexiflo III is a rotary peristaltic pole-mounted pump with LCD display, rate and volume readout with dose limit, low battery and no flow alarms. It is unique in its ± 5% accuracy, which is very precise among enterals. It is not recommended by Ross for neonatal or pediatric use. Rate Parameters: 1 - 300 ml/hr. in 1 ml increments Occlusion Pressure: 20 PSI Accuracy: ± 5% Battery Life: 8 hours at 300 ml/hr Recharge Time: 1.5 hours of recharge per hour of use Alarms: No Flow, Cover Open, Low Batt, Dose Complete, Audio Off (later models) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
