The UCI microclimate controller is designed to perform the main functions of the atmosphere for the time required in a plant growing environment.

It includes control of daytime temperature, nighttime temperature, day/night hysteresis, extractor speed, daytime humidity, nighttime humidity, co2 (by programmed time), lighting control and irrigation. The controller incorporates a cable with a temperature probe (in the basic version) and temperature and humidity (in the Temp + HR version), a 24-hour timer for lighting with connection for up to 4 600 W or 6 400 W lamps, a cyclostat for irrigation, fan controller for intraction/extraction, a socket for a heat source (only at night).

It includes an attractive silk-screened front panel with a display that makes it easy to navigate the menu and set the values desired by the gardener. There is also the option to override the automatic administration and do it manually to check peripherals and activate irrigation if necessary.

It also has a log and alarm file with which the grower can know exactly the evolution of his crop and act accordingly. This graph is very useful as it provides an “x-ray” of the greenhouse and the grower can make a diagnosis to act if the values shown are not optimal for the crop.
