So, I bought this pump because it said the rate of flow was adjustable. Which for the purpose of setting up a kalkwasser stirrer, 20-30 mL/min is ideal, you don’t want a quick dump of kalkwasser which can cause spikes. Also, I didn’t want to run the pump continuously all day. I wanted to start at 9 pm, and stop at 9 am, overnight only to start.

I don’t thing there is a way to set it up in continuity mode and start it at 9pm and stop at 9am everyday.
At least I haven’t found out how.

In plan mode, I have to enter 2 plans, one from 9pm-12, and another from 12- 9am, can’t seem to program 9pm- 9am.
The biggest problem I am having with this pump is that when I go to settings in plan mode and set and calibrate my rate at 20mL/min, it doesn’t stick with the program and pumps at 60+mL/min! This I can’t explain or permit.

Let me know if I’m doing anything wrong or if there is some factory problem with this pump, if not and this is the capabilities of it, then I don’t want it, I’ll send it back and get a Versa, for more money. I’m definitely not installing this if I can’t trust it.

The flow rate of the X1 PRO-T can only be adjusted in manual mode, in Planning Mode the flow rate is fixed. If you want the machine to drip 20 ml in one hour, the machine will start working at the maximum flow rate of the pump at the beginning of one hour, and stop after the dripping is completed, until the next hour comes. You can only change the amount of dose and not the speed. For continuous dosing of Kalk I suggest the Kamoer FX-STP. Hope this helps.
