Equipped with five high-precision stepper pumps, the Dosetronic PRO operates independently as a programmable dosing station or integrates with compatible Focustronic testing equipment to automatically adjust dosing based on measured aquarium water parameters. Its additional automatic water change and continuous dosing capabilities make it particularly useful for demanding reef aquariums, SPS-dominated systems, and calcium reactor installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFive-Channel Precision Dosing for Advanced Reef Aquariums\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the five independently programmable dosing channels can deliver aquarium supplements according to a customized schedule. Rather than adding large quantities of alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, or other solutions at once, users can distribute their daily requirements into smaller doses throughout the day. This helps accommodate the changing demands of a reef aquarium while reducing abrupt changes in water chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive high-precision stepper pumps:\u003c\/strong\u003e Independently controlled dosing channels with durable pump tubing, quiet operation, and 0.1 ml dosing resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible daily schedules:\u003c\/strong\u003e Customize dosing quantities and delivery times for individual supplements, with schedules that can reflect differences between daytime and nighttime consumption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmart Schedule Generator:\u003c\/strong\u003e Creates a 24-hour dosing schedule using the aquarium lighting period and the selected distribution of daily dosing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApp-based management:\u003c\/strong\u003e Configure individual pumps, review dosing activity, perform manual doses, and monitor remaining supplement volumes through the Focustronic application.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalibration and refill alerts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manage pump calibration, supplement container volumes, and dosing notifications from the connected system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAutomatic Alkalinity-Based Dosing Adjustments\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen connected to a compatible Focustronic Alkatronic or Alkatronic Professional, the Dosetronic PRO can use measured alkalinity levels to help maintain a more consistent dosing regimen. This goes beyond conventional dosing pumps that simply repeat the same schedule regardless of changes in aquarium consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Dosing Adjustment (ODA):\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses alkalinity consumption trends to adjust the dosing schedule across participating channels. This is useful when coral growth or changing system demands require gradual modifications to the daily supplement supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelective Dosing Adjustment (SDA):\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides another method of adjusting scheduled dosing in response to measured alkalinity behaviour. ODA and SDA are alternative correction modes rather than functions operated simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoordinated dosing:\u003c\/strong\u003e When Alkatronic detects an alkalinity condition requiring corrective action, channels assigned to Alkatronic Mode can deliver additional doses or skip scheduled doses as configured. This supports balanced multi-part supplementation instead of correcting alkalinity without considering associated additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dosetronic PRO can also work with Mastertronic Essential to adjust compatible dosing channels using measured parameters such as calcium, magnesium, and nutrients. Compatible testing equipment is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAutomatic Water Changes and Continuous Reactor Dosing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo important features distinguish the Dosetronic PRO from the Dosetronic DC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomatic Water Change (AWC):\u003c\/strong\u003e Two dosing pumps can be assigned to remove aquarium water and replace it with prepared saltwater, automating small water exchanges without relying entirely on manual water changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContinuous Dosing Mode:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports controlled, extended pump operation for applications such as calcium reactor effluent or kalkwasser reactor feeding.

The Dosetronic PRO is the more versatile choice for aquarists who also want automatic water changes, continuous reactor feeding, or its heavy-duty stepper-pump configuration. For reef aquariums requiring only scheduled additive dosing and compatible automatic corrections, the Dosetronic DC provides a more straightforward alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall the Dosetronic PRO on a stable, level surface or use the supplied wall mount in a protected, accessible location. Connect the supplied tubing to the appropriate supplement containers and delivery points. Install the Focustronic app, connect the unit to Wi-Fi, and follow the initial setup process. Prime and calibrate each dosing pump before establishing individual schedules. If using Alkatronic or Mastertronic integration, configure the compatible devices and correction settings according to the manufacturer's instructions. Verify dosing accuracy and system behaviour before relying on automatic corrections. Maintain the pump tubing and recalibrate whenever tubing, pump position, or operating conditions change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocustronic Dosetronic PRO five-channel dosing unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExternal dosing hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 VDC power adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall mounting bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Focustronic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67711768264992,"sku":"FT-CDPRO","price":1029.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/8222\/5696\/files\/dosetronic-pro-1.png?v=1791927430","url":"https:\/\/aquariumsupplydirect.com\/products\/focustronic-dosetronic-pro","provider":"J\u0026L Aquatics - Aquarium Supply Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
