I've been running the BM-T01 for about 11 months now. The only info I can find about replacing the pump heads is "Temperature changes or mechanical wear and tear may cause increased titration error". Does anyone change pump heads before they fail? If so, how often?

Thanks. I ordered a couple of replacement heads. I'll probably hold on to them until I see a problem.

What kind of life are you getting out of ea head? I’ve had the same doser and slave for about 6mos but dosing less than 10ml on ea channel since then. Just curious what to expect.

Thanks

I've been running BRS two part on my 125 for 11 months, and haven't changed heads yet. I've had to ramp them up several times, but I have a lot of corals and a lot of growth. And my SPS have really been taking off. Right now, I,m dosing 150 mg Alk and 140 mg Calc daily. I dose Mag manually whenever it needs it. So far, it looks like the the doser and heads are doing what their supposed to.
