The white BNC socket is where a Digital Temperature sensor can be connected.

EN 2023-03-02 10
Instruction Manual GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi

TIP
• Place the sensors in an area where water can constantly circulate
around them.
• To prevent algae growth, it is best to place the sensors in a dark
spot. For mounting, an open external filter would be a good place.
• To ensure proper sensor measurement, attach the sensor
perpendicular to the water surface.
• Make sure that the cable connection of the sensor is not immersed
in water under any circumstances.
• Many sensors are very susceptible to interference due to their low
level signals. To provide the most accurate measurements, please
have enough distance between the sensors/cables and sources of
interference. These can include: Electronic ballasts, power lines,
pumps, consumer electronics, etc. False readings can be avoided by
following these precautions.

3.2.3 PAB Ports

PAB Devices such as a ProfiLux Controller or an EXT Doser are connected to the black RJ45
Western sockets. For more information, please refer to the "Connection to PAB" section.

3.2.4 USB Connection (Stand Alone only)

Instruction Manual GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi

4 Activation
4.1 Installing the GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi
The device must be protected from water at all times!

Mount the Doser in a water-protected area. Ensure the unit cannot fall into the water during
assembly or regular use. When selecting the mounting material, ensure adequate sizing and
stability.

If you want to place the device inside an aquarium cabinet, ensure the chosen area is free
from splashing water, moisture, or liquids that can penetrate the appliance.

GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi and its accessories will be destroyed by excess moisture or
atmospheric humidity - Please observe the technical data and notes below!

Please observe the following regulations to ensure safe and secure operation! Failure to do
so will invalidate warranty claims, and the manufacturer will not accept any responsibility or
liability for damage!

Mains voltage-operated devices and water can become a dangerous combination. Therefore,
it is essential to supply all mains voltage operated devices utilized in the aquarium or the
vicinity with mains voltage via a FI (residual current) circuit breaker!

Disconnect all mains voltage-operated devices from the mains (pull out all plugs!) when
working in the tank. One never knows if a heating rod, a pump, or a light is defective.

DANGER
Make sure to run a drip loop for all cables and lines coming from the
aquarium. Cables and tubing must be routed in a way that prevents water
from entering electrical or electronic parts!

The illustration below shows how to best position the dosing units and the dosing liquid
container to prevent the dosing container from running empty into the basin - e.g., in the
event of unexpected occurrences.

EN 2023-03-02 12
Instruction Manual GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi

Optimal Doser Arrangement

You can mount semi-rigid as well as flexible tubes. Select the appropriate tubing material for
your application. The Dosers push-pull fittings make assembly particularly easy.

Select the tubing suitable for your application and attach it to the dosing pump. Push semi-
rigid tubes directly into the fittings— fit flexible tubes with the tube adapters before
connecting them to the pump.

EN 2023-03-02 13
Instruction Manual GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi

DANGER
• Flexible tubing may only be mounted with the enclosed adapters.
Without adapters, the tubing will be compressed and damaged, which
may result in damage to the pump or leakage.
• A repair caused by this is not a warranty case and, therefore, subject
to a charge.
• Tubing must be cut straight to prevent leakage.

Insert the straight cut tubes as far as possible into the fittings. Avoid tensile loading.

The pumps of the Doser are self-priming. To facilitate the suction of the dosing liquid, the
tube leading into the dosing tank should be kept as short as possible on the suction side.

In order to prevent backflow through the siphon effect, the dosing tube in the tank should
not reach directly into the aquarium water on the pump side.

Please also note the following notes:

TIP
• Please ensure good access to the connections of the device
• Please consider the maximum cable lengths of the connected PAB
cables, sensors etc. when selecting the installation site
• Additional sensor cable extensions (BNC2 cables) and PAB cables are
available in different lengths to fit your needs. They are available
online in our GHL Store (For US customers, GHL USA Store).

EN 2023-03-02 14
Instruction Manual GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi

WARNING
• To ensure proper operation, the connection cables should never be
kinked, crimped, or positioned in an unsuitable way.

DANGER
Products that are already powered should never be pulled by the cable.
This may cause malfunction or damage the connected products and the
GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi.
They should only be pulled by the plug connected to the power socket.
GHL Doser 2.2 Maxi and its accessories are destroyed by moisture or
excessive humidity.

4.2 Connecting the Temperature Sensor (SA Doser only)
