Ca Reactor instructions???

[Fishie Nut]

I got a Koralin c3002 reactor. I could really use some help in how to hook it up. Do I need a pump to feed it? What size? Can I use a peristaltic pump to drip into the tank?

If anyone can pop up a diagram for this type of reactor, I really would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Well, I can tell you that i tee'd off my return line to feed my Knop-c. It's been working great but, if you use a dosing pump(peristaltic) you won't need that annoying clogging adjustable flow valve on the end of your effluent line. At least it's annoying and clogging with the Knop reactor. But i think tee'ing it from the return line provides more pressure to help prevent CO2 vapor locks like i've experienced with my Knop-c.I hope this helps!Good luck! Craig

Thanks cnaegler. I just got a manual from Marine Depot. They are really great when it come to Customer Service. I appreciate your help.

Tanks, again.
