Question

How the crop condensation program works?

Answer

There are 3 ways to work with the crop condensation program:
  1. via calculation with fruit simulation
  2. via crop temperature measurement
  3. via temperature rise greenhouse temperature
When you select more than one way, the most critical has priority.

1. Via calculation with fruit simulation



You have to select:


The simulation program works for the following crops:


The diameter of the biggest fruit has to be filled in.

In this case the dewpoint temperature is 17,3 °C. The temperature of the coldest fruit is 21,1 °C. The deviation is 21,1 - 17,3 = 3,8
(because of rounding up in the display, this calculation can differ by a tenth in the indicated value)

When the deviation is low, there is a risk of condensation. With the ViP-influence you can set an alarm, increase vent position or pipe temperature.

2. Via crop temperature measurement

If you have another crop, then you can use a plant temperature sensor.





You have to select:


In this case the dewpoint temperature is 17,3 °C. The temperature of the coldest fruit is 20,9 °C. The deviation is 20,9 - 17,3 = 3,6
(because of rounding up in the display, this calculation can differ by a tenth in the indicated value)

When the deviation is low, there is a risk of condensation. With the ViP-influence you can set an alarm, increase vent position or pipe temperature.

3. Via temperature rise greenhouse temperature

This way can be used for flowers.
