QUICKDOSE

QUICKDOSE beakers are available in sizes 300cc, 500cc, and 1000cc only.
Each beaker has 3 independently operated dosing capsules mounted to the
lid. Each capsule is fully replaceable and capable to be rebuilt.

See part

numbers below.

CAUTION

Thoroughly rinse the dosing capsules with warm water following each use. This
cleans the interior of the parts, extends the life of the seals and prevents clogging
due to dried chemicals.
