Etatron eOne Micro-Doser Kit, 1 1/2 in Hi-Flo
Some of the most valuable products in a feed program go in at tiny rates that a water-powered injector cannot hold. This kit handles those jobs on a 1 1/2 inch line. Dilution Solutions builds it around an Etatron eOne MF 01-10 electric metering pump. The pump is rated at 0.26 gallons per hour, or 1 liter per hour, against 145 psi. It runs up to 180 strokes per minute, and the amount dispensed per stroke is adjustable. A water meter in the line sends pulses to the pump as water flows through. That signal keeps dosing proportional to flow instead of running on a timer. Depending on flow rate, the kit can dose as low as 0.25 mL per gallon. The pump head is PVDF with a PTFE diaphragm, Aflas seals and ceramic ball valves. Those materials stand up to acids, caustics and other aggressive chemistry. Growers use it for pH down, pH up, plant health additives and water treatment products. It can run alone or alongside Dosatron dosers on a Nutrient Delivery System.
Setting Up a Micro Dosing System on a Hi-Flo Line
The kit ships as components for the grower to plumb in. Unions and a mixing chamber fit the Hi-Flo line, and the water meter installs in the same run. A foot filter on the PVC suction tube sits in the chemical container. A polyethylene discharge tube carries product from the pump head to the injection valve. The injection valve feeds the chemical into the passing water. A check valve and a pressure relief valve protect the pump and the plumbing. Hi-Flo systems in this pipe size cover roughly 5 to 60 gallons per minute. Place the injection point ahead of the mixing chamber so the product blends before it reaches the crop. Set the stroke volume and pulse settings to match the target rate and line flow. Run a volumetric check after setup to confirm the actual dose. Keep the suction tube submerged and the foot filter clear of sediment. Flush the pump head with clean water before switching between chemicals. The kit carries a 1 year warranty.
