Chihiros Dosing Flow Adapter

Chihiros Dosing Flow Adapter

The Chihiros Dosing Flow Adapter is an aluminium alloy fitting that connects to the water pipe of a canister filter, so you can add dosing ports for a dosing pump system. It suits aquarists who want to feed liquid fertiliser or supplements into a canister filter setup through a neat, dedicated connection point.

Key Benefits

• Supports the installation of four dosing ports on one adapter, so several dosing lines can share one connection point.
• Each dosing port is equipped with a check valve.
• A built-in one-way valve prevents water leakage, even when the dosing tube is not installed.
• Durable aluminium alloy construction.
• Connects directly to the water pipe of the filter canister, with no extra plumbing needed.

How to Use

Fit the adapter directly onto the water pipe of your filter canister, then install your dosing ports on it. Up to four dosing ports are supported, and each has its own check valve. If a port is not in use, the built-in one-way valve keeps water from leaking out, even without a dosing tube installed.

Suitable For

• Canister filter setups where you want to add dosing lines to the filter's water pipe.
• Aquarists running, or planning to run, a Chihiros Dosing Pump system.

Compatibility

The adapter is fully compatible with the Chihiros Dosing Pump system. It is made in two sizes to suit different filter pipe dimensions, so check your canister's pipe size before choosing.
