I picked up a used II plus with a three pump dosing station.

My question what is the lowest "ml" I can dose at a time and what is the maximum amount of dosages a day i can set it for.

The previous owner had the manual for the controller but not the dosing pump

Hi

1ml is the lowest and 60ml a minute is the highest.

Max on time in one dosing cycle must not be more than 15 minutes.

Hi

The caculation is

max 15min dosing period with 15 minute break in bewteen.

so thats 12 a day at max 15 minute cycles.

This is the recommended and it is NOT a set default, just a guide line to not wear out the pumps due to over use or over heating.
