Dosamatic Injector systems can get quite expensive and cumbersome. Why
not try a positive displacement chemical metering pump that has a built in
check valve. This pump can be fed from a pre-mix tank of a fertilizer
solution with an agitator attached to the tank. Agitator only comes on
when pump is running
A chemical metering pump is a pump that will meter a certain amount of
solution. It can be adjusted. Being a positive displacement, the
solution will flow only one way, out............don't block the line or it
can burst.
I will try and post my ideas in late winter after some designs are tested
and complete.
