Brass Siphon Mixer<br />

Made<br />

in the<br />

USA<br />

Siphon Mixer with Backflow Preventer<br />

A time-tested, accurate proportioning device, designed for small-scale<br />

growers. The Siphon Mixer dispenses fertilizers, insecticides, fungicides<br />

and other water-soluble chemicals through a hose.<br />

• Proportions at the rate of 1 gallon of concentrate to 16 gallons of water<br />

• One gallon of concentrate is dispensed in 3 to 5 minutes<br />

• 3 gallons per minute minimum flow<br />

• Made of brass<br />

• Hozon needs 35 psi minimum<br />

• Use on maximum 50’ length of hose<br />

(see illustration at below if more than<br />

50’ of hose is desired)<br />

The Hozon should be no more than fifty feet<br />

from the nozzle end to work correctly<br />

If more than fifty feet of hose is<br />

used the Hozon can be connected<br />

between two sections of hose.<br />

(backflow<br />

preventer)<br />

How to prepare a concentrated solution not shown in the chart<br />

• Hozon proportions at 1:16 so concentrated solution should be made at 16<br />

times the recommended rate<br />

• Example: If fertilizer recommendation is 2 Tbsp (1/8 cup) per gallon then make<br />

the solution 16 times greater than that rate (i.e., 16 x 2 = 32), or 32 Tbsp (2<br />

cups) per gallon would be the concentrated rate<br />

• Then, when mixed with water from the hose, the concentrated solution will<br />

come out of the hose end at the recommended rate<br />

Hozon Bypass<br />

• Switch between injecting fertilizer and<br />

straight water<br />

• 18” hose leader so the assembly can sit<br />

on top of your solution tank or bucket<br />

Dual Hozon<br />

• Increased flow over a single Hozon<br />

• Inject two solutions or switch between<br />

one and the other<br />

• 18” hose leader so assembly can sit on<br />

top of the solution tanks or buckets<br />

fertilizer<br />

concentrate<br />

The Hozon draws approximately one<br />

gallon of concentrate in about 5 minutes.<br />

Depending on the flow rate, it will be<br />

mixed with 12 to 18 parts water.<br />

• A larger diameter hose will give a<br />

larger flow rate<br />

• Excessive back-pressure will cause the<br />

siphon to stop drawing<br />

• Adjustable nozzles should not be used<br />

or should be wide open for best results<br />
