Dilution Solutions Nutrient Delivery System (NDS) Monitor Kit, 1 1/2 in

NDS Monitor Kit with Mixing Chamber, 1-1/2 Inch – HYKMON150

The Dilution Solutions HYKMON150 is the NDS Monitor Kit for 1-1/2-inch Hi-Flo Nutrient Delivery System installations. The inline monitor provides real-time readout of EC/ppm, pH, and temperature of the nutrient solution leaving the mixing chamber — giving the grower direct confirmation that the Dosatron injectors are delivering solution at the correct concentration and pH.

The Monitor Kit includes all the components needed to install the monitor and mixing chamber inline with the 1-1/2-inch NDS: the nutrient monitor with probes, mixing chamber, pressure gauge, unions, nipples, tees, and hose adapters. Assembly is required. Together with a Starter Kit, Dosatron Injectors, and Water Hammer Arrestor Kit, the HYKMON150 completes a fully instrumented Hi-Flo NDS.

Key Features & Benefits

• Inline EC/ppm, pH, Temperature Monitor — Real-time display of three key nutrient solution parameters.
• 1-1/2-Inch Hi-Flo System — Sized for 1-1/2-inch Hi-Flo NDS installations.
• Mixing Chamber Included — Ensures well-blended solution before it passes the monitor probes.
• Pressure Gauge Included — Monitors system pressure alongside nutrient solution parameters.
• Complete Plumbing Kit — Includes unions, nipples, tees, and hose adapters for a full inline installation.
• Assembly Required — Field assembly of all plumbing components during installation.

Who Should Use This Kit

The HYKMON150 is for Hi-Flo NDS installations where inline monitoring of EC/ppm, pH, and temperature is required. Operations that need real-time confirmation of nutrient solution delivery — for crop safety, audit compliance, or feed program verification — benefit from the inline monitor's continuous display.

Why Inline Monitoring Matters in Nutrient Delivery Systems

A Dosatron proportional injector delivers concentrate based on water flow through the unit. If concentrate container runs low, a leak develops in the concentrate line, or the injector's internal piston wears, the effective dosing ratio can drift without any visible indication at the injector. An inline EC/ppm monitor downstream of the injector and mixing chamber measures the actual conductivity of the blended solution — if the EC reading drops unexpectedly, it signals that the injector is not delivering at the expected ratio, triggering investigation before plants are affected.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the HYKMON150 include?

The kit includes the inline nutrient monitor with probes, mixing chamber, pressure gauge, unions, nipples, tees, and hose adapters.

What parameters does the monitor display?

The inline monitor displays EC/ppm, pH, and temperature of the nutrient solution.

What other components do I need to complete the Hi-Flo NDS?

In addition to the HYKMON150, you need Dosatron Injectors, a Starter Kit (HYKSTART), and a Water Hammer Arrestor Kit (WHA150-SS-KIT).

Is assembly required?

Yes. Assembly of all plumbing components is required during installation.

Is there a 3/4-inch version?

Yes. The HYKMON (DSGCMKWMC34) is the 3/4-inch Lo-Flo version of this monitor kit.
