DOOA CO2 Mini Counter

Description

The CO₂ Mini Counter by DOOA is a CO₂ bubble counter made of high quality glass. It serves in monitoring the CO₂ input.

The supply of CO₂ and controlling the correct input is especially important in aquascapes and plant aquariums to ensure a good plant-growth while avoiding to hurt the animals within the aquarium. This control is possible by observing the CO₂ counter and adjusting the number of bubbles according to the needs of the aquarium. We suggest to additionally use a drop checker to ensure the correct number of bubbles has been established.

The included check valve by ADA does not safeguard your CO₂ supplying system but prevents water from leaking from the bubble counter.

Features

• Made of high quality glass
• 2 transparent suction cups included
• with seperate ADA check valve
• Fits 4/6 mm-hose

Usage

• Fill the bubble counter with water
• Use tubing to connect the CO₂ supplying system with the check valve
• Connect the check valve to the lower part of the bubble counter (the check valve should be rather close to the bubble counter)
• Connect the outflow of the bubble counter with the CO₂ diffuser or reactor

Installation order

1. CO₂ bottle
2. Solenoid valve (if available)
3. CO₂ proof check valve (to protect the CO₂ system)
4. Supplied check valve (near to the counter's input)
5. Bubble counter
6. Diffuser

We recommend to use soft silicone tubing to connect the glassware in order to reduce the risk of glass breakage. The piece of hose used should be kept as short as possible in order to avoid unnecessary CO₂ losses.
Silicone hose is not pressure resistant and therefore can not be used for connection to the pressure regulator.
