Domestic Series Controllers
DOSING CONTROLLER
Dosing Controller automates nutrient management operations of the Terrarium. The pH and EC levels within a plant factory environment fluctuate on a continuous basis as a result of evaporation and transpiration processes of the crop apart from freshwater induction into the nutrient tank. The Dosing Controller can manage the pH, EC, Nutrient Temperature (optional), and Dissolved Oxygen optional levels in the nutrient solution. The grower can set the desired setpoints for pH, EC nutrient temperature and dissolved oxygen, as per best practices or agronomist recommendations for the crops under cultivation.
MONITERED PARAMETERS
• PH EC DO (Dissolved Oxygen) • Nutrient Temperature
PRODUCT FEATURES
- Three modes of operation: Automatic. Schedule and Manual to suit different growing needs
- Monitors solar radiation to determine ambient light for day and night classification
- Supports Wi-Fi communication protocol for connectivity to the cloud via the Communication Gateway Controller
- Intuitive touch screen graphical interface for easy operations under any lighting conditions
- User friendly mobile app for remote climate control of the plant factory over the internet.
- Built-in real time clock with CMOS battery backup for precision scheduling operations
- User configurable peristaltic pump ratios and speed to meet the desired nutrient discharge rate
- Calibration mode to ensure accurate operation of the pH and EC sensors
- EC and nutrient temperature parameter units can be configured for different regions
USAGE BENEFITS
- Ensures delivery of accurately prepared nutrient solution supplied to the hydroponic system within the plant factory resulting in consistent crop yields
- Prevent crop wilting and other diseases by ensuring optimal nutrient supply through day and night or through the year
- Achieve lower input resource costs by controlling the dosing processes to use minimal amounts of buffer and nutrient solutions
- Enable labor cost savings through remote monitoring of the plant factory 24/7 thereby reducing the need for manual inspection and intervention
- Graphical dashboards and analytics give a better understanding of the plant factory operations, based on granular data collected over a period of time, and visibility to the combination of parameters giving maximum yield
- Easy and clutter-free installation of the Dosing Controller, Nutrient Sampler, Sensor Probes and PVC Housing Assembly
- Optional solar power modules for power grid independent operation of the Controllers
- Implement stringent access control measures through password protection at the controller level to prevent unauthorized access to setpoints and schedules
- Receive notifications and alerts to implement proactive and reactive remedial measures to prevent crop loss situations
MULTI CONTROLLER
The Multi Controller is the heart of the terrarium automation system as it monitors and controls the crucial parameters to keep the plants happy and thriving. This is the world’s first controller capable of managing the environment in Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD), priority mode to control transpiration which directly affects plant health.
