Features
Unmatched in precision, feature-rich, and built for long-term reliability. Includes PrecisionDrive technology – the ultimate in dosing accuracy, reliability, and long-term performance.
By combining continuously evolving features and cutting-edge technology, the GHL dosing family remains essential for any high-quality aquarium.
The GHL Doser 3 incorporates PrecisionDrive technology – a combination of 24V stepper motors and planetary gears, ensuring ultra-precise dosing with minimal deviation. This next-generation drive system provides exceptional accuracy, quiet operation, and unmatched reliability in every dose.
Since 1999, GHL has been synonymous with high-quality aquarium technology, manufactured in Germany. All products are developed and produced in-house, designed for maximum precision and reliability.
With the Doser 3, we take this trusted foundation even further: planetary gears, LAN and Wi-Fi connectivity, and over-the-air firmware updates bring enhanced performance and convenience.
Ease of Use and Multiple Connectivity Options
Easy and convenient operation with GHL Connect (app, web interface and cloud service) or GHL Control Center PC software.
Connect via WiFi, LAN or USB.
More ways to connect – even easier to use
With the addition of a LAN port, the GHL Doser 3 offers even more flexible connectivity options. Firmware updates can now be done directly over Wi-Fi or LAN – easier and more convenient than ever, no USB connection required.
Precision and Flexible Dosing Schedules
The PrecisionDrive technology allows you to perform up to 250 micro doses per day. Precisely adjustable with a resolution of 0.1mL!
When determining the dosing times, you can choose your doses to be distributed automatically throughout the day — or up to 24 doses per day, individually set.
Tracking with the GHL Logbook
Keep track of all your aquarium-related events, set reminders, record past and current water parameters, and more with the GHL Logbook.
The GHL Logbook is your digital notepad for recording aquarium-related events, setting reminders, recording past and current water test results, and so much more.
Scalable to a Complete Dosing System
Need to control multiple dosing pumps? The GHL Doser 3 is the ideal solution, offering seamless expandability into a full dosing system. When used with a ProfiLux controller, you can independently manage up to 32 pumps – or up to 16 pumps when using any Stand Alone (SA) Doser.
Flexible. Modular. Fully Compatible.
The GHL Doser 3 Stand Alone includes integrated control electronics, allowing you to manage additional dosing units directly – whether it’s GHL Doser 3, 2.x Extension, or Doser Maxi Extension.
Thanks to full cross-compatibility, you can freely combine all versions: GHL Doser 2.x, 3, and Maxi – as Stand Alone or Extension models. Extension Dosers can also be connected to a ProfiLux 4 Controller for centralized control.
All dosing pump settings are easily configured – locally or remotely – using the GHL Connect app, the myGHL cloud platform, the built-in web interface, or GHL Control Center on your PC.
Stand Alone and Extension Doser Ports
