The
Aqua Medic M-ventil Pulse
is a product of highest quality, safe and reliable for more pleasure
with your aquarium. A time dependant CO
2
–intake can be realized using a timer together with this
valve.
The solenoid valve may also be monitored via a pH controller to achieve a maximum degree of
comfort with ideal carbon dioxide provision at all times.

2. Operation with CO
2
Set-up:
The solenoid valve is pre-mounted and tested. It must only be integrated into the CO
2
–system. On
the body of the valve, you find an arrow that indicates the direction of the flow.
First the hose is mounted on the inlet (4):
1. Unscrew the knurled nut of the-CO
2
connection (4).
2.
Slide the knurled nut over the flexible pressure tube (6/4 mm, ¼“).
3.
Slide the end of the tube over the nipple (4).
4.
Screw the knurled nut onto the nipple and tighten.
5.
Mount the other end of the flexible tube onto the pressure outlet of the pressure reducer
(
regular
) and tighten.
6.
Now, a tube is mounted in the same way on the outlet (5). Here, you do not need to use a
pressure tube, you may use ordinary pvc-tube (6/4 mm, ¼“).
7.
The free end is connected to the bubble counter inlet or to the CO
2
–inlet.
8.
If you use a pressure regulator with adjustable operating pressure, set it to 1 – 1.5 bar (14 -
20 psi).
Note:
Always
use
a
non-return
valve
between
the
aquarium
and
the
solenoid
valve.
It
prevents
water
from
flowing
back
from
the
aquarium
into the regulator and the CO
2
–bottle and may cause damage. We recommend
to use the original Aqua Medic bubble counter with integrated non-return valve.
