The ATC60 offers three tiers with almost 60 ft2 (5.5 m2) of growth area in a 25 ft2 (2.32 m2) footprint. With a growth height of 20 inches (510 mm) above each shelf, the ATC60 is ideally suited for Arabidopsis and other short to medium height plants. Standard on the ATC60 is a flood tray at each tier to simplify plant irrigation. Please consult Conviron regarding specific requirements.

The E7/2 offers two independently controlled growth areas in a single unit making this model ideally suited for applications where smaller experiments need to be conducted in different environments, all in a small footprint. Despite its limited footprint, the E7/2 offers over 23” (585mm) of growth height in each compartment and over 8.2ft2 (0.76m2) of total growth area. Please consult Conviron for your specific requirements.

The MTR26 provides 26ft2 (2.4m2)of growth area and 24” (610mm) of growth height over two shelves and is suitable for a range of applications including the growth of short to medium height plants that require moderate light intensity. Standard is a closed-loop lighting system. The chamber is shipped fully assembled, fits through standard doorways, and has a low overall height for confined ceiling spaces. Please consult Conviron with your particular application and area of research and we will provide you with an overview of the available options.

The MTR30 has features very similar to the PGR15. However, the MTR30 contains two shelves thereby doubling the growth area available in the PGR15, yet with the same footprint. With 30 ft2 (2.79 m2) of growth area and 25 inches (635 mm) of growth height, the MTR30 is suitable for a range of applications including the growth of short to medium height plants that require moderate light intensity. The chamber is shipped fully assembled, fits through standard doorways, and has a low overall height for confined ceiling spaces. Please consult Conviron with your particular application and area of research and we will provide you with an overview of the available options.

The TCR walk-in room provides a multi-tier modular platform available in increments of 60ft2 (5.6m2). This makes the TCR chamber suitable for research involving plant tissue culture and is often used within large micropropagation programs. The solid side wall plenums transfer air to individual air shelves ensuring upward airflow from each individual shelf, which is essential in mitigating condensation within media dishes.

Model Description

 

Conviron’s DR Series dew rooms are uniquely designed for testing in a high (100% RH) humidity, or ‘saturated’ or ‘mist’, environment. A typical application in plant pathology, for example, is the testing of plants infected with disease where the high humidity promotes disease propagation. Dew rooms provide horizontal airflow with air discharge via a perforated side wall plenum. Lighting on the standard configuration is for visibility purposes only. To achieve the high humidity levels, the system employs (pre-coil) primary spray nozzles, which spray continuously, as well as a (post-coil) secondary cycling spray nozzles programmed by the user. Stainless steel is used on the interior for corrosion prevention.
