Deizisau, november 2021 – Aquarium enthusiasts who want to care for their fish can now do so remotely: simply via a smart phone, tablet, or PC.
Following the digital lighting control, LEDcontrol+, and the intelligent external filter (professionel 5e), EHEIM has now also launched a smart automatic feeder. The EHEIM autofeeder+ has an integrated WLAN function (Wi-Fi) and can be programmed and monitored via smartphone, tablet, or PC.
Feeding times and the amount of food released can be individually defined and you can even schedule a random fasting day per week. In addition, the Smart Control offers some monitoring. For example, you can check the current filling level of the feed drum at any time and even get a prediction of the range of the remaining feed quantity. If the quantity falls below 30%, an e-mail is sent to you; in addition, an email is sent as soon when the feed drum is empty.
You can also “smart link” with the other devices in the EHEIM WiFi family. For example, the speed of the professionel 5e can be reduced or increased for a few minutes during feeding. And when the filter is not running - e.g. during water changes or maintenance work – you can program the feeder so that it stops automatically.
You can also activate overfill protection to prevent accidental overdosing. And with the new type of slider on the feed drum it’s possible, for example, to supply fish (and even fry) with very small amounts of food.
No app needs to be installed to use the smart functions of the new EHEIM autofeeder+ and it can integrate into a home WLAN network, allowing various EHEIM Wi-Fi devices to synchronise and work together in different tanks, in different groups and rooms!
