automated controller, including programming
Explanation:
I suggest that you keep it simple and avoid over-translation, which could result in your translation specifying something more elaborate than, or just different from, the equipment actually being referred to. Obviously, as programming is included, it is superfluous to call it a "programmable automated controller".

"Based on your needs, the approach may range from a simple manual feed system to a fully automated controller that provides continuous monitoring of your system's operational data. Automation and control software operated by a micro-processor takes readings from sensors and adjusts the level of chemical feed as needed in response to variations in system loads and water quality.
