Description
Single-Tier Plant Growth Rooms
Single tier ‘WALK-IN’ controlled environment rooms for medium and tall plants requiring moderate to high light intensities. With an optimized spectra for plant growth, lights are located at the ceiling in a self refrigerated lamp-loft to keep environmental conditions uniformand stable throughout the growth area.
- FitoClima ‘HP’ walk-in plant growth chambers are specially designed for plant research
applications that require medium to high light intensities. Equipped with the latest
‘full spectrum’ dimmable ceramic metal halide lamps that allow for intensities
up to 1.100 µmol/m2-s (PAR) at 1 meter from light source. - With total control and great uniformity of environmental conditions, these
rooms can recreate temperature, light, humidity, CO2 and even simulate wind
in order to replicate all conditions the research may require. - Easily program conditions through ClimaPlus: a user friendly color touch-screen interface
Key Features
- Temperature, Humidity, Light intensity and Air Flow
controlled with consistent precision through the years - Lights located at the ceiling inside a separately cooled
glass barrier keeping environmental conditions stable inside
growth room whilst providing high light intensity - Latest generation of ‘full spectrum’ CMH lamps and
electronic ballasts, allowing for great energy savings - Adaptive future proof design, with easily removable trays
for optimal height distance from light source - All environmental conditions easily programmable with the
new ClimaPlus® multicolour touchscreen interface - Research protection features, with configurable high / low
temperature and humidity alarms and automatic remote
notifications
Construction
- Exterior: EN 14509 sandwich type high density injected polyurethane
foam modular panels, 80 mm thick (other thicknesses available for
different specific insulation requirements) with galvanized steel in light
gray plastic finish. CFC-free. - Floor: slip resistant AISI 304 stainless steel floor
- Walls: Galvanized steel with white epoxy paint
