Trident Water Analyzer

Say Goodbye to Manually Testing for
Calcium, Alkalinity, or Magnesium in your Reef!

The Trident is an automated testing system that
regularly tests alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium in your saltwater aquarium and then communicates this information to your Apex

so you can get alerts, and
change your dosing. When combined with the DOS (available separately) it
creates a fully automated system for the proper dosing of supplements,
maintaining them at consistent levels.

Automatically performs Calcium,
Alkalinity, and Magnesium tests

Includes 1-month of reagent

Combine with Neptune DoS for automated
dosing

Programmable alerts for out of range
parameters

Data is graphed for easy to comprehend
tank stats

Can be set-up and integrated with your
Apex in less than 15 minutes

Empties used reagents and sample into an
external vessel (not included)

Up to one month of testing before reagents
need changing; based on 4-Alk, 2-Ca, 2-Mg tests per day

Note: Requires Neptune Apex or ApexEL with an open
1Link OR a 24V Power and Aquabus cable

How It Works

The Trident is a self-contained automatic titration
colorimeter. That’s quite a mouthful, for sure, so let’s state it as simply as
we can.

The Trident is basically automating what you (and top scientists) do
already when you test your water, that is, perform a colour changing titration
and interpret the results.

On a scheduled basis the Trident carefully mixes its
reagents with a small amount of sample water from your aquarium. While doing
this, it is measuring (titrating with a precision peristaltic pump)

the amounts
of each that are necessary to reach an expected colour change (determined by the
electronic colorimeter). When it finishes the titration, it sends this
sample/reagent fluid to your waste

container. It then interprets the results of
that test and logs the value into your Apex.

Easy Plug & Play Setup

From the box to testing in under 15 minutes! Unlike
other testing systems, there are no reagents to mix, tubes to cut, or pumps or
probes to calibrate. Simply plug in one cable, two tubes,

and run the setup
task on the Apex Fusion mobile app — it holds your hand through the
installation with helpful videos along the way.

Consistency & Precision

The Trident tests with a precision of +/- 0.05 dKh for
Alkalinity and 15ppm for Calcium and Magnesium. This is better than humans can
do consistently with every hobby-grade test kit on the market.

Understand Your Reef Tank Like Never
Before

When you start getting the regular data coming in from
the Trident you will be amazed at the things you can see happening. The daily
light cycle swing on calcium carbonate uptake.

A salinity drop by watching
magnesium. An out of sync dosing of calcium. This increased understanding
ultimately helps you maintain a better, more successful reef.

Instant Alerts

You can set up your Apex to alert you, or take
immediate action(s) when a parameter falls outside of the safe zone you
specify. As just one example, you might be dosing an Alkalinity solution and

a
misconfiguration could lead to overdosing of your tank. The Trident will catch
that, alert you, and give you more time to make that correction before its too
late and to save your aquarium. The data

from the Trident can also be used to
turn on and off other devices (like dosers or solenoids) to protect your tank even
more.

Ultimate Stability with the Neptune DŌS

The more stable you maintain proper levels of
Alkalinity, Calcium, and Magnesium, the better your corals will grow and
thrive. But coral uptake of these supplements often changes and requires us

not
only to perform more testing but also seems to put us in a never-ending state
of adjusting our dosing levels.

The Trident, when paired up with one or more of our
DŌS systems solves this problem with Automatic Dosing Control (ADC)

When configured on the Apex, ADC will take the results
it receives from the Trident and uses them to gradually turn up or down the
amount of additive your DŌS delivers. But, don’t worry, we have built

this
feature with safety in mind. With ADC you set your target value and your
starting dosing amount and ADC will only tune that dosing level +/-35%. If it
takes more than that amount of dosing to keep

your aquarium at your target
value, then the Apex will stop ADC, revert to your starting dosing amount, and
alert you that you need to manually adjust your dosing level. Then, ADC can be
re-enabled and

it will continue to guide your DŌS so that it keeps you as close
to your target value as possible.

It is possible to use ADC for all three tests –
Alkalinity, Calcium, and Magnesium. You can also use one test value to adjust
up or down more than one additive delivered by the DŌS (i.e. Triton system).

Simple Reagent Changes

When using the default testing schedule of four (4)
alkalinity, two (2) calcium, and two (2) magnesium tests a day, the reagent
stored inside the Apex will last a full month. And adding new reagent is super
simple —

just slide out the drawer, remove the old bottle(s), and replace them
with new ones. If you desire, you can also run a calibration session with the
included calibration standard.

Ultra-Quiet Testing

You will hear the Trident operate from time to time if
you listen closely or you have a super-quiet room. And, as compared to other
automated testing systems, it is several dB quieter. While inside your cabinet
along with your other equipment, you will likely never even hear it.

What's Included?

1x Trident System

1x 2-Month Reagent Supply*

*The included reagent is the actual 2-month reagent
kit, however with initial setup of the Trident, a small amount of reagent will
be used, which will result in about 45 days of reagent remaining (which can
vary depending on how many times a day you test)*
