What is a greenhouse automation?
Greenhouse automation is an advanced technology that is used to improve efficiency and reduce the cost of cultivating plants in greenhouses. This technology includes a variety of wireless temperature and humidity sensors, gas sensors such as ammonia, wireless controllers, and intelligent systems of temperature control, humidity, light, etc.
The benefits of using greenhouse automation
Types of Greenhouse Power System
1. Holiday lamps
Lamp is one of the types of greenhouse power and lighting systems; But you need to know that it is not a good option. These lamps are more suitable for the implementation of greenhouse structures where plants need less light. In fact, the preparation of halide lamps is the best choice for areas with low or no natural light areas. In greenhouse systems, light natural light resembles sunlight for the growth and reproduction of plants. Keep in mind that if your greenhouse is natural light during the day, there will be no need to use these lamps.
2. Diode Lighting System
Diode brightness or LED lamps are very high in energy and performance. These types of lamps are also used for home lighting because they store a lot of energy. These lamps are used in most homes and greenhouses. The most important reason is the long life of these types of lighting systems. The use of LED lamps is very easy and easy. Most manufacturers prefer initial investment in these lighting systems because of their features. These types of lamps do not need to be precisely adjusted to the lighting. This reduces temperature problems between plants and lighting system.
3. Fluorescent lighting
The use of the fluorescent lighting system is used for most greenhouses. However, with the advancement of technology, manufacturers need full light, so most gardeners use these types of lighting systems for greenhouses. Fluorescent light is similar to sunlight. When plants need more light to grow. This option is the best choice for you. Before purchasing fluorescent lights, you need to check the packaging temperature range to ensure that the temperature produced is desirable for the growth of plants. For example, young plants need lower temperatures for growth and reproduction, on the other hand, adult plants can grow at higher temperatures. Lighting can be automatically performed according to greenhouse intelligence.
4.
One of the types of high -pressure sodium vapor lamp system. High -pressure sodium steam lamps are used in the exterior lighting system in parking lots and streets. Instead of using light white colors produced by halogen lamps, this type of lighting system produces warm white light. This lighting system can be used only in combination with compounds of natural resources because it improves plant germination and flowering, providing the most appropriate option for planting and cultivating plants. The lamps that produce red and orange are longer than white lamps. Due to these lamps used for greenhouses, it is compatible with environmental conditions and provides efficient energy and conditions for initial plant growth. Most manufacturers currently use sodium and halide lamps to save on expenses and take advantage of its energy.
The advantages of the greenhouse electrical system and lighting system
The most important advantage of smart greenhouse power systems and lighting systems, which, according to the light intensity of the lamps, decrease or increase the lighting of the greenhouse environment and prevent the lamps from overlapping. That saves electricity and reduces the cost of electricity and energy. Another advantage of the greenhouse electricity and lighting system is that it prevents excessive heat and heat production and can accelerate the growth of plants. Finally, the lifespan of greenhouse cooling equipment will increase. Exposure in this type of electrical system and lighting will increase the growth rate of plants and lead to increasing production of products.
When purchasing the right cable you should pay attention to the maximum current passing power with relevant standards and insulation compared to moisture. It is worth noting that the equipment used inside the greenhouse should be stainlessly stainless due to the moisture in the greenhouse. Other other equipment in the greenhouse needs electricity, such as: low tolerance sensors, which act as a temperature sensor, light sensor, etc.. All light spectrum is involved in plant growth and photosynthesis. It is noteworthy that the intensity of the plant light is between 3,000 and 50000 to provide the plant's growth conditions well.
