Tropical Marine Centre has upped its dosing game with the launch of the Reef AccuDose programmable dosing pump. Small in size at under 3″ square, this single doser head is seemingly equipped with everything a reefkeeper wants from an auto doser including a stepper motor, app control, variable dosing speed, and calibration. We see so many dosers at the moment and single-head dosing is both cheap to buy into and convenient to dose anything from all-in-one buffers to amino acids and plant food. TMC’s AccuDose includes Bluetooth connectivity to the TMC Connect App, so if you’re a fanboy/girl you can now play with selected TMC lights, pumps and now doser all on one platform.
Features
The AccuDose boasts many features and can dose between 0.1 and 105ml a minute with plus or minus 1% accuracy, and can dose from 0.1-2000ml a day in total. Via programming, It allows for differing dosing volumes across a 24-hour period, maintains a dosage log, and will tell you how much fluid you have left in your dosing container (based on dosage.) It can be hooked up to optical sensors and used as part of an ATO or multiplied and controlled as part of a group of up to 12 separate AccuDose heads simultaneously. On the face of it, this single-stepper motor offers everything we could want from a dosing pump, and although no price has yet been announced this doser looks fully equipped for modern dosing demands in 2023 and beyond.
