This enables you to catch issues right when they happen – or better yet when they are on the road to failure. Also, for many of us the cost of the electricity to run a successful aquarium is a major concern in our household.  Even for those where electricity is cheap, we believe most aquarists care a great deal about their energy consumption and its effect on the environment. Ironically, our energy usage could be directly connected to excess greenhouse gasses, the warming of the oceans, and the bleaching of the corals! \u003cspan\u003eHowever, armed with this power usage information, we believe aquarists will not only be able to make operating and purchase decisions that will save them hundreds of dollars a year, but they will also be able to reduce their carbon footprint.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBUILT-IN 1LINK AND 24VDC PORTS - This Energy Bar has a built-in 100W, 24VDC power supply that can control up to three Neptune Systems 1LINK products like the WAV and DOS.   It also includes two switchable 24V DC on\/off outlets that are compatible with any 24V device under 30W and Neptune Systems 24V accessories like our Practical Multi-purpose Utility Pump (PMUP) \u003cspan\u003eand solenoid valve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eINDIVIDUAL OUTLET INDICATOR LED - Each Energy Bar AC outlet as well as the two 24VDC accessory ports have their own status LED.

Place a flow sensor on a device like a carbon\/gfo\/biopellet reactor and it serves many purposes. First off, you will know if your pump is not not flowing correctly or failed altogether. Next, you can easily fine-tune the flow into the reactor by watching the dashboard tile on your Apex.

The most common method for doing this today is to use standalone dosing pumps and run them on a timer using seconds or minutes to determine how much to dose. This is not only confusing, but also prone to inaccuracy.  Everyone knows that when measuring a fluid it is done by volume, not time. Every dosing calculators out there uses volume. So, with the D?S (and the Apex Fusion interface) you simply enter the amount you want of each part of the additives (one on each pump) and what hours of the day you want it delivered. The D?S then sets up all the dosing intervals within that time period. When that time interval is finished, the exact volume you set has been delivered.  It even automatically chooses the slowest speed necessary for the pump so that it minimizes noise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWater changes – the never ending chore of an aquarium\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHate doing water changes? – everyone does – so they never get done as often as they should.

Then, with the Apex Fusion wizard just tell it amount of water you want to change over what length of time and the hours of the day you want it to happen and it figures it all out for you.  It will perform an automatic, continuous water change for you.

Be aware that not all dosing pumps are built alike. Well, lets clarify that. Almost all OTHER dosing pumps are alike – but most ALL OTHERS are very different from the D?S.Nearly all dosing  systems on the market today use a standard, DC brush-driven motor. Why? Because it is economical. This is the same motor you might find in your child’s toy car. We thought that was just not adequate for an aquarium where you might have thousands of dollars invested.  So, we spent over a year searching and testing pumps and motors and decided on using a pumps with industrial grade stepper motors in the D?S – the same type of motors used in high end robotics, 3D printing, and medical equipment. So, why does it matter?\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eStepper Motors Make all the Difference\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePrecision\u003c\/h4\u003eWith the stepper motor pumps on the D?S, you have precise control each time you dose. And, you are guaranteed it will stay calibrated pretty much forever. On the other hand, with the standard DC motor pump found in most dosing systems, it cannot dose small quantities with ongoing accuracy and consistency. They also require ongoing calibration to account for the wear of the motor and the mechanisms. When pumps fall out of calibration, they dose either too much or too little – never a good thing considering an overdose to a tank will often be its demise.\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch4\u003eVariable Pump Speeds\u003c\/h4\u003eOne of the great features of the stepper motors on the D?S pumps is that they can be driven at various speeds depending on the purpose for which they are being used. For instance, dosing of vodka may require the slowest possible rotation while a water change use requires a much higher pump speed. The best part is that Apex Fusion wizards automatically select the proper speed based on the use and because of the stepper motor, accuracy is not compromised even at the higher speeds.\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGearing and Drive Mechanism\u003c\/h4\u003eThe DOS uses a direct drive mechanism that will not slip, it will not strip, it will not grind to a halt.  On the other hand, many other peristaltic dosing pumps used for aquariums have gears that can (and do) strip. Or, worse yet, some pumps work by using the friction of rubber rollers on the smooth metal motor shaft to make the pump spin. Foreign matter like salt creep, additives, etc. often get into the drive mechanisms of these pumps and make them fail or pump unknown amounts.\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eLifespan\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stepper-motor in the DOS has a MTBF (mean time before failure) of 5000 hours. Other systems with brush-driven DC motor pumps have lifespans measured of just a few hundred hours of use. This means the pumps on the D?S may have up to as much as 12x the lifespan of others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSecure, Large Diameter Tubing Connections\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003eLeak proof fittings are very important, not just because of the possibility of leaking fluid, but also because the leaking of air into a line would cause the pump not to meter the correct amounts.  The pumps on the D?S have sure-fit compression fittings that are virtually leak-proof. Contrast this to other dosing systems on the market that still use dual-barbed fittings that commonly split the tubing and cause leakage of fluids or air.Larger size tubing means that your pump does not have to work nearly as hard – or stay on for longer cycles. The most popular dosing pumps on the market use tube fittings with the tiny diameter of 1.67mm. The DOS uses much larger tubing and fittings. In fact, at 3.33mm in diameter, the pump on the DOS can handle 4x the flow of the most common pump style on the market (pictured).  This means that your pump (and motor) will run 1\/4 the time to pump the same amount of fluid.

On top of that, most species do best when they are fed all throughout the day.\n\nHowever, overfeeding of aquariums is one of the top reasons for water pollution and tank failures. With the AFS, you can use the Apex to schedule to feed your fish small amounts of food from once, to as many times as you like throughout the day. You can even set the exact days to feed or not to feed. And, if you are measuring water quality using ORP, you can even hold off feeding if the ORP values drop too low in the tank.\n\nThe most obvious benefit of the AFS is that it can feed your fish when you are away on vacation — no longer do you have to worry about a friend or family member forgetting to feed, or worse yet, overfeeding your tank!\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStay-dry system prevents caking and clumping\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nA common issue for most aquarium autofeeders is moisture getting into the food, making it clump or cake and clogging up.

Most of the living beings of this planet require oxygen in order to metabolize nutrients. Fish, invertebrates, corals, and bacteria ingest O2 and expel CO2 day and night.\n\nYour critters are not the only things that use oxygen in your tank. Organic materials (i.e. Dissolved Organic Compounds, uneaten food and fish detritus on the bottom of the tank) consume a lot of oxygen as they break down. And now it’s even popular to add nitrifying bacteria additives which multiply very rapidly, consuming a large portion of the available oxygen in the tank water.\n\nOf all the organisms in your aquarium, large fish are the most acutely at risk to low O2 levels. In some situations with heavily loaded systems, simply the failing of a skimmer can bring the O2 levels down to dangerous levels and cause a chain-reaction fish die-off . This is where the PM3 Dissolved Oxygen module comes to the rescue.\nGet an Alarm and Also Have the Apex Take Action\n\nShould your aquarium O2 start to approach the danger zone, the Apex can alert you immediately by audible alarm as well as send you an email. But, that’s not all. You can have a couple of air pumps with air-stones on the ready in your sump and the Apex will turn them on if the O2 starts dropping too low. Now this is what aquarium monitoring and control is all about! Yet another example of how the Apex is like an Insurance policy for your tank.\n\n\u003cb\u003eBonus\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nAnd, there is an added bonus, you get an extra temperature port as well as six I\/O switch inputs. Purchase our optional I\/O Breakout Box and you can monitor the off\/on state of six I\/O signals. This is useful if you want to set up an ATO (Auto Top Off), a feed button, or even a sump door alarm or light switch.","brand":"Neptune Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40199868252295,"sku":"NS-PM3","price":139.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/6387\/6487\/products\/neptune-systems-pm3-expansion-box-990815.jpg?v=1731256875"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/6387\/6487\/collections\/neptune-systems-apex-a3-pro-300363.jpg?v=1734623652","url":"https:\/\/charterhouse-aquatics.com\/collections\/neptune-systems-controller.oembed","provider":"Charterhouse Aquatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
