Growth Units serve for precisely controlled plant cultivation and comparison studies.
Growth Units are primarily intended for placement in climatized chamber (not part of Growth Unit), where a large number of them are located and controlled via programmable logic controller (PLC). PLC is an option to purchase. Alternatively - if only a single or few Growth Units are purchased – they may be controlled individually via the display located on the front part. No PLC needed in such case.
The Growth Units arrangement enables multiple experimental setups in one cultivation space. Every single Growth Unit offers possibility of different light and temperature regime, which makes them very suitable for multiple or parallel experiments.
