MICRO-DOSER SYSTEMS
Lo-Flo and Hi-Flo Series Nutrient Delivery System
The Etatron e-One Micro-Doser can accurately inject super-concentrated
products and can be integrated into an existing fertigation system. The Micro-
Doser is able to hit target rates of many high-value products on the market
These kits can work in combination with a Dosatron Water-Powered Nutrient
Delivery System, or as a stand-alone solution, to provide the ultimate in
reliability and functionality in one system
- Applications include dosing acids (pH down), caustics (pH up), plant health additives, and water treatment products
- Ability to micro-dose down to 0.1 mL per gallon, depending on the flow rate
