The Trident is an automated testing system that regularly tests alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium in your saltwater aquarium and then communicates this information to your Apex so you can get alerts, and change your dosing. When combined with the DOS (available separately) it creates a fully automated system for the proper dosing of supplements, maintaining them at consistent levels.
Automatically tests seawater for Alkalinity, Calcium, and Magnesium
Up to 24 Alkalinity tests per day with +/-.05 dKh precision
Up to 12 Calcium tests per day with +/-15 ppm precision
Up to 12 Magnesium tests per day with +/-15 ppm precision
7.9ml sample water used per parameter tested
7 minutes testing time per parameter tested
Up to one month of testing before reagents need changing based on base level testing of 4-Alk, 2-Ca, 2-Mg per day.
When combined with DOS system (available seperately), the data from Trident can be used to automatically raise or lower the amount of additives dosed as necessary to maintain stability at user set point.
Wide range for measurements:
Alkalinity 5.0 - 15.0 dKH
Calcium 250 - 875 ppm
Magnesium 850 - 1950 ppm
