Complete Pump Systems

This kit is easier to assemble and has a smaller floor footprint then our earlier pump kit models. It can easily supply water pressure to a large number of Blumat Tropfs in both commercial and home operations. When To Use A Pump Kit This kit is a great solution for larger home grows and commercial facilities looking to supply their plants from a reservoir without having to get a reservoir up high for a gravity system or attach directly to a pressurized water line. What This Kit Does Not Include Supply Tubing for your Blumat system A reservoir A drill bit to install our bulkhead into the reservoir (A step up bit is preferable) Components What This Kit Includes Then pump kit includes all fittings needed to get from your chosen supply tank to the supply tubing portion for your Blumat system. This kit also includes our adjustable pressure reducer (2.5—14 psi).

DescriptionWant to use Dosatron products with Blumats? No problem! Inspired by our friends out in Oregon at High Wind Farms we built this kit. Blumat systems generally operate at very low flow rates. This is an advantage over other watering systems for many reasons. However, low flow rates prevent the use of dosing systems like a Dosatron because they have minimum flow rate requirements to operate properly. By placing the Dosatron between a high flow pump and a pressure accumulator tank, the issue is solved.The pressure switch on the pump turns itself on and off as pressure levels in the accumulator tank drop. This creates bursts of high flow through the Dosatron at appropriate flow rate levels. The tank fills with nutrient mix and feeds itself through a pressure reducer into the Blumat system, maintaining constant pressure. Nutrient solution is then available to plants as they need it, 24 hours per day.This kit uses the Dosatron D8RE2. This is fertilizer injector has a variable uptake range from 0.2%-2%. While more expensive than a standard model it allows for versatility and adaptability in your nutrient program.
