Copper Power Dosing Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Copper Power Dosing.
CPD = S / 1.695 * (DCP - CCP)
Variables:
- CPD is the Copper Power Dosing (mL of copper dosed)
- S is the aquarium size (gallons)
- CCP is the current copper power level (PPM)
- DCP is the desired copper power level (PPM)
How to Calculate Copper Power Dosing?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Copper Power Dosing.
- First, determine the aquarium size (gallons).
- Next, determine the current copper power level (PPM).
- Next, determine the desired copper power level (PPM).
- Next, gather the formula from above = CPD = S / 1.695 * (DCP – CCP)
- Finally, calculate the Copper Power Dosing.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
aquarium size (gallons) = 30
current copper power level (PPM) = 2
desired copper power level (PPM) = 4
CPD = S / 1.695 * (DCP – CCP) = ?
