The Core Suction Engine for Acidic Fertigation
The Dosatron Plunger Assembly (Part #8PJ069VF) is the essential internal component responsible for creating the volumetric vacuum within the D8RE5 series injectors. Designed to handle water flows up to 40 gallons per minute, this assembly works in tandem with the motor piston to draw concentrated additives into the mixing chamber. As a genuine OEM replacement, the 8PJ069VF restores the factory-original suction power of your unit, ensuring that your nutrient solutions are blended at a consistent 1% to 5% injection ratio, regardless of fluctuations in mainline water pressure.
Industrial Viton Sealing for Acid-Based Chemistries
This "VF" designated model is equipped with high-durability Viton seals, making it the primary choice for growers utilizing acidic fertilizers, pH down solutions, and specialized industrial additives. Unlike standard seals that can swell or degrade when exposed to low-pH environments, Viton maintains its structural integrity and sealing performance, preventing vacuum leaks and protecting the injector from internal wear. By replacing the entire plunger assembly rather than individual O-rings, facility managers can achieve a more reliable seal and significantly reduce the labor time associated with high-flow injector maintenance.
