Description
High-Volume Automatic Dosing for Large Reservoirs
The Bluelab PeriPod L3 is the large-format member of the PeriPod family: a wall-mounted doser with three medical-grade peristaltic pumps that each move up to 1200ml/min, ten times the rate of the M-series. It takes its orders from the Bluelab Pro Controller Wi-Fi, dosing pH adjuster and nutrient stock straight into the reservoir whenever readings drift, which makes it the choice for commercial tanks where a 120ml/min pump simply cannot keep up.
Key Benefits
- Up to 1200ml/min per pump (40 fl oz/min) for big reservoirs and fast corrections
- Precision down to 0.1 pH and 0.1 EC when paired with the Pro Controller
- Calibrate each pump to the viscosity of the liquid it doses for a consistent flow
- Link L3 units for multi-part feed programmes, up to 12 pumps in total
- Quiet, fan-cooled and wall-mounted, and it can sit lower than the injection point
- Opaque nutrient tubing to stop algae, plus acid/alkaline-resistant pH tubing
- Replaceable pumps, cassettes and tubing keep it accurate for years
Is Manual Dosing Holding Back a Big System?
In a large recirculating system, pH and EC move all day as plants drink, and a daily hand-dose leaves the whole crop sitting in the wrong solution for hours. That is where nutrient lockout, poor nutrient uptake and uneven growth start. The L3 corrects drift as it happens, in volumes a commercial reservoir actually needs, and the Edenic app lets you set nutrient ratios and watch every dose remotely.
How to Use
- Mount the PeriPod on a wall near the reservoir
- Run the tubing - the acid/alkaline-resistant line for pH adjuster, food-grade lines for nutrient stock
- Connect to your Bluelab Pro Controller Wi-Fi and prime each pump from the unit
- Calibrate each pump to its liquid, then set ratios and set points in the Edenic app
- Note: the L3 links only with other L3 units, not with the PeriPod M3 or M4
