* You can calculate the required fertilizer dosing capacity by multiplying the
maximum required irrigation water (main pipe capacity) by the maximum required
fertilizer dosing ratio.
EXAMPLE
With a dosing ratio of up to 10L per fertilizer per m
3
of irrigation water, the
1000 L/h dosing channels are suitable for irrigation of between 60 and 100
m
3
/h.
** Acid can also be dosed using a fertilizer dosing channel; the indicated acid
resistance should be taken into account.
*** One HortiJet has between one and four fertilizer dosing channels and, optionally,
one acid dosing channel.

Pumps
The pump type depends on the dosing capacity, the pressure in the main pipe and the
electrical frequency.
