Bubble Magus BM-T01 and BM-T02
I think it's closed to prevent it from humidity. In cause of use can be cut it off.....:worried:
Setup is as easy as it gets, plug in power and wait a few seconds for it to load.
To setup:
(1) set the time
- press escape
- use the up/down buttons to select set time, press enter
- set the time using the up/down buttons for each digit and press enter
(2) connect lines
- I used standard air line tubing which seems to fit nice and snug
- input is on the left, output on the right
(3) prime the pump
- press escape
- use the up/down buttons to select manual control, press enter
- select the pump using the up/down button - pump 1,2 & 3 are on the primary unit, 4,5,6 & 7 on the secondary (I'm guessing an additional add-on would continue the trend)
- press and hold enter to manually run the pump till the air bubbles are out and the line is full
(2) configure pump for dosing
- press escape
- use the up/down buttons to select setup program
- use the up/down button to select 1-3 for the primary unit, or 4-7 for the secondary
- use the up/down to select the pump number
- set the ml/day using the up/down buttons for each digit and press enter. you can select from 1-1999 ml.
- set the cycles per day and press enter. these are based on the following table:
Dose amount (mL): Cycles/day
1: 1,2
2: 1,2,3,4
3: 1,2,3,4,6
4-5: 1,2,3,4,6,8
6-11: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12
12-160: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
161-319: 2,3,4,6,8,12,24
320-479: 3,4,6,8,12,24
480-639: 4,6,8,12,24
640-959: 6,8,12,24
960-1279: 8,12,24
1280-1919: 12,24
1920-1999: 24
- set the start time (take note you can only select the start hour, press enter. the minutes are per-determined based on the pump number). for example P1-:00 P2-:05 P3-:10 and so on.
*** NOTE - the pumps are forced to run one at a time to prevent mixing of chemicals.

testing:
To test I used a cup of RO/DI and a BRS 250ml flask. For each channel I put a 100 ml single dose and set the time so that it would run a minute after programming.
* as a side not I found it interesting that the pumps are either 100 ml or 110 ml - I was expecting more of a distribution.
I also ordered the line holder - fantastic quality and are show-case worthy! apparently when buying Bubble Magus pumps it is assumed you have a rimless sump - the bracket will only fit facing down, compared to the horizontal it is made for. this will not impact usage, just something noteworthy.
