Kamoer FX STP Pump
So I set it up today.
Calibration was not too bad, I watched the U Tube video for added support even though the instructions are easy to understand. Pump is quiet on a small shelf on the rear wall of the cabinet. I think if the room is quiet I might be able to hear it but with the TV on I don't. Initially running @ 50 ml/ min & 1 bubble / second. I did have to increase the pressure in order to get a bubble since the previous flow through the reactor was double. We Shall See---

Sorry is this the new peri pump that is single use only that run 24/7 and adjustable. I take it that you are using it on a Calcium reactor. I have heard about this think coming out.

No Sir,
networkcrasher has one, & says it works fine so I ordered one. Never took a pic but the unit is small,maybe 3 x 5 inches, heavy with soft feet for any vibration. I know what to listen for & can barely hear it when nothing is on in the room.

I am pulling through the reactor.
So far, only a week I have -o- problems, after an outage it returns to previous setting. I may have to change something depending on my Alkalinity reading. I was @ 7 and am looking to be 8.5 - 9. I am up to 7.7 @ the last test. I am surprised that vendors handling the Kamoer multiple head doser do not offer it.

If I make it to the level I want with 2 part dosing, then how long I have to maintain this level before I turn off dosing pump to let the reactor take over? |

Well the electric company decided to work on the wires today.
There I am with my head in the stand checking something & out it goes. Then I hear a beep every so often, just like a smoke detector with a low battery. Could not pinpoint it so I figured after the juice is back it might go away. After a nap, cause there is nothing needing attention more than me since we are scheduled to travel soon & I have been out of sorts. With the wife telling me the beep is still there I go on a search again. Much to my surprise it's the doser, must be an alarm on shutdown, did not hear it when I unplugged it for calibration. Another win on this one! Now I just have to remember it ---
