Controller Percival’s Intellus Ultra controller is capable of controlling temperature, humidity, CO2 and lighting. The Intellus Ultra Control System is a single-board electronic solid-state design which includes a10 key membrane keypad with LED indicators and a vacuum fluorescent display. Programs may be configured to run in real time or countdown (circadian) mode.

Ramping and non-ramping program methods are available for each programming mode. Multiple programs can be linked to create complex environmental profiles. The Intellus Web Server (optional) allows for monitoring and controlling of the chamber via a web browser (requires Internet Explorer 6.0 +). This option allows for remote monitoring and programming of your chamber including alerts and current condition updates for up to five e-mail addresses. Please refer to www.percival-scientific.com for additional information regarding the control system.

Lighting System Single lamp bank consists of six 55W compact fluorescent lamps and two 40W incandescent lamps to yield a maximum light intensity of 950 µmoles/m2/s of light irradi-ance is measured @ 6” from the lamps.

Programming and control of the lighting is done via Intellus real time controller.

Applications This chamber product is frequently used for research applica-tions such as lighting for vascular plants to facilitate standard plant production, plant pathology research and seedling germination and development.

Many other applications exist for this product. Please compare your own requirements to the specifications listed below.

E-30BHO Reach in Plant Growth Chamber

REACH IN PLANT GROWTH

E-30BHO Reach In Plant Growth Chamber Cabinet Construction 22-gauge interior and 18-gauge exterior electro-zinc plated steel construction. All seams and joints on the outer and inner shells are welded. Inner shell is supported by a non-compressing and non-thermal conducting material to lock the inner liner in place without a metal-to-metal bond to the outer case. The chamber is completely self-contained, suitable for stacking one above the other.

Insulation Woodless construction using CFC free insula-tion. Overall wall thickness is 2” (5.1cm), ample insulation for maintenance of stated temperature range.

Doors One door opening each 26 3/4” x 29 5/8” (67.9 cm x

75.2 cm) provides full access to the chamber interior. A mag-netic gasket provides tight seal to door frame.

Interior Space 8 ft3 (0.23 m3) with a work area 3 ft2 (0.23 m2) provided on one tier.

Shelving One tier of white epoxy coated steel wire shelv-ing. Shelf is 16 1/2” D x 26 1/2” W (41.9 cm x 67.3 cm).

Shelf is supported by shelf clips which allow 1/2” vertical adjustments. The maximum growing height is 27 5/8” (70.2 cm).

Finish Interior and exterior painted with highly reflective, environmentally friendly, high temperature baked white pow-der coating.

Refrigeration 1/2 h.p. self-contained air-cooled condens-ing unit with hot gas bypass system for continuous compres-sor operation, extended life and close temperature control.

This continous running condensing unit ensures precise tem-perature control by alternately cycling refrigerant and hot gas to the coil; this also prolongs the life of the compressor, and eliminates the risk of ice build up in the coil. Solenoid valves have an extended stem for quiet and long life opera-tion. Evaporator coil is mounted on the rear chamber wall, and incorporates an air circulation fan. Heat rejection to the ambient (standard chamber) = 4700 BTU/hr.

Temperature Range 10° - 44° C with all lights on (± 0.5° C) and 2° - 44° C with all lights off ( ± 0.5° C).

Temperature Safety Limit Controls (Experiment Protection) Adjustable high and low temperature controls, audible alarms, and visual indicators are provided.

The controls shut down all the power to the chamber, and activates alarms. When the temperature returns to the normal range the system will automatically reset.

Humidity Control (Optional) (This section out-lines the H1 option). Additive control of humidity in %RH through use of ultrasonic humidifiers or spray nozzles will maintain humidity levels of up to 90% RH lights OFF and 70% lights ON, between 15° and 30° C. Humidifier requires distilled or de-mineralized water. Optional dehumid-ification via independent coiling coil and reheat heaters will maintain humidity levels down to 40% RH between 15°C and 30° C.

Options (most popular) Advanced Intellus Control System (C9), Communications Software (C9+), Advanced Intellus with Touchscreen and Internet capabilities (C10), Spray nozzle humidifier with advanced RH sensor and some dehumidification via reheat heaters (H9), Dehumidification via independent cooling coil with reheat heaters and spray nozzle humidifier (H8), Ultrasonic Humidifier with advanced RH Sensor (H11), Dehumidification via dehumidifying coil with reheat heaters and Ultrasonic Humidifier (H12), Ultrasonic Humidifier with Electronic RH sensor (H14), CO2 enrichment package, Self-contained water-cooled condensing unit, Dry alarm contacts (S2), Closed loop dimmable lighting (Q22), Open loop dimmable lighting (Q23). Extended tem-perature ranges available. See other catalog sheets or consult factory for additional accessories.

Convenience Receptacles One 115/1/60 convenience receptacle provided inside chamber.

Electrical Service Requirements 115/1/60 - Two grounded cords and plugs provided - (1) 6-amp cord (1) 10-amp cord.
