Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Dosatron D14 hydroponic sub-line | D14MZ-HY, within the D14 family's 0.05-14 GPM flow range | Dosatron — Water-Powered Dosing Pumps |
| Dosatron D07 low-flow injector | 0.02-3 GPM, smallest-flow injector in the Dosatron lineup | Dosatron — Water-Powered Dosing Pumps |
| Dosatron D25 flow range | 0.05-11 GPM, named for hydroponics/fertigation service | Dosatron — Water-Powered Dosing Pumps |
| Dosatron dosing mechanism | Water-powered/electricity-free — proportional piston driven by line water pressure | Dosatron — Water-Powered Dosing Pumps |
Hydroponic and aquaponic nutrient dosing runs at a fraction of field-irrigation flow, and getting the ratio wrong doesn't show up as a compliance letter — it shows up as burned or starved plants. The D07's 0.02 GPM floor exists because Dosatron builds separate injector families for that low-flow precision range rather than expecting one injector to proportion accurately across three orders of magnitude of flow.
