Make sure to connect the actuators (electric valves) to the controller, which will control the opening and closing based on the received data. If your system includes a humidifier or a dehumidifier, you will need to synchronize these functions via a central controller to harmonize the management of air and water, ensuring an optimal climate. Finally, use the GSE controller interface to adjust the time ranges and moisture thresholds, thus facilitating precise and automated control of your indoor crops.

Question 11

What advice would you give to optimize the placement of the 4-meter probe to obtain a representative moisture measurement in a large greenhouse?

Accepted Answer

To optimize the placement of the 4-meter probe in a large greenhouse, it is essential to position it at a height close to that of the plants to measure the humidity where it truly impacts the crop. Avoid areas near heat sources, localized moisture (such as irrigation systems), or direct ventilation to avoid skewing the readings. Additionally, avoid placing the probe in corners or near walls where air may stagnate. For a more accurate global humidity measurement, it is often helpful to install multiple probes in different strategic locations within the greenhouse, allowing for the capture of variations and automatic adjustments for optimal conditions.
