Plant Growth Chamber For Research
Plant Growth Chambers – Standard and Hi Spec Plant Growth
Product Overview/Applications
The MBDW series walk-in chamber is based on a modular platform available in increments of 40ft2 (3.7m2). These units offer a precise chamber environment typical of research involving C4 high-light plants grown to maturity. Unique is the top-down airflow pattern which ensures consistent plant canopy temperatures throughout the chamber. Spectral aluminum on the interior walls produces unparalleled light uniformity, while the discreet lamp loft area uses a separate cooling system to mitigate heat produced by the lighting system.
Lighting
The standard lighting package for the MBDW series chamber generates moderate to high level light intensity and incorporates metal halide and tungsten incandescent lamps. The result is a broad based light spectrum ideally suited for plant growth.
Airflow
Utilizing an innovative design, a top-down airflow pattern uniformly disperses conditioned air from the top of each plenum and returns the air through conditioning coils located at the bottom of the chamber area. Using an independent ventilation and conditioning system for the lamp loft helps to reduce heat transfer to the chamber area.
Refrigeration
Cooling for the MBDW series is provided by a self contained water-cooled condensing unit with hot gas bypass for continuous compressor operation.
