Autodosing NOPOX with Aquamedic Evo4

[lewis_e]

Hi All,
I want to hook my NOPOX up to Aquamedic Evo4 auto-doser, but I'm worried about the denatured methanol breaking down the components. NOPOX will eat through acrylic, so I'm sticking to connecting it through the NOPOX bottle cap, I think it should be ok going through rubber tubing (the same as I have on the ATO) but I can't find any info on what the tubing on the pump itself is, has anyone dosed NOPOX with an Evo4 and had any issues with the tubing breaking down because of continuous exposure to the denatured methanol?
Cheers

i have the same doser and dosing diy nopox for about 6 months now, so far no problems. i think the only part that would be affected by nopox would be the plastic connectors at the dosing head.
