Device description
The digital climate controller
GROW
BASE EC
PRO
•
is the control center for the ambitious indoor gardener. A number of different devices
and sensors can be connected, which guarantees maximum flexibility. In addition, the
number of power outputs can be extended with an extra device.
•
is similarly able to control standard duct fans as well as EC fans, offering maximum
flexibility.
•
keeps grow room temperature at the desired value by varying the air flow of the fans.
•
keeps the humidity in the grow room at the designed value by switching a humidifier or
dehumidifier.
•
can additionally reduce the humidity in the grow room by increasing the air flow.
•
is able to control the CO
₂
level in the grow room with a CO
₂
sensor connected or
without a CO
₂
sensor.
•
is designed for the connection of the following devices: EC fans (intake, exhaust),
standard duct fans (intake, exhaust), lights, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, water pumps,
circulation fans, heating mats, electric heaters as well as CO
₂
valves or generators
, CO
₂
sensors, negative pressure sensors, additional temperature sensors for a water tank or a
heating mat and an output extension.
The last measured temperature and humidity values are used to calculate the expected
values in the future. This enables the controller to quickly react to changes and achieve
the desired value.
•
is able to regulate the temperature and humidity as precisely as ±0.5°C/±1% RH.*
•
ensures a constant negative pressure in the grow room, avoiding the escape of odors
from the grow room. To maintain an accurate negative pressure, a pressure sensor can
also be connected.
•
supports the option to adjust the length of a day cycle, providing equal yield with less
time required.
•
can control the temperature of a heating mat. The temperature can be set to a certain
value or a temperature relative to the room temperature.
•
is equipped with an easy-to-use multilingual (English, German) menu. Many different
setups can be achieved, e.g. adjusting the minimum and maximum fan speed
separately for day and night. It offers a range of information including the current
temperature, CO
₂
concentration, current humidity, min/max temperature values and
humidity, current fan speeds and other information regarding the operating condition.
•
saves the settings permanently to ensure that they remain available after a power
breakdown or after the controller has been temporarily out of use.
*Provided that the sizing of the connected utilities is appropriate and the fresh air temperature is
sufficiently low. The tolerance is related to the repeat accuracy rather than the absolute accuracy.
The absolute accuracy is ±3%.
