Thermoregulatory vessel

Properties of Thermoregulatory vessels:

• heating and cooling up to ΔT ≤ 15°C in comparison to air temperature (cooling below 10°C requires ventilation)
• fast temperature change: 0.7°C/min.
• long-term temperature maintenance
• homogeneity of the liquid temperature: gradient of 0.5°C during heating about ΔT 15°C, 2.6°C during cooling about ΔT 15°C
• low weight: 3 kg
• default size of the vessel: 36.8 x 20.0 x 11.7 cm
• size can be modified according to customer’s demands
• compact size of the vessels and separated control panel enable to place the vessels into regular climate chambers
• isolations guarantee low energy loss and low energy performance (friendly to climate chambers)
• every vessel has own controller and thermocouple or two thermocouples.

The vessel is compatible with Araponics system for hydroponic cultivation of plants (www.araponics.com) and enable easy manipulation with hydroponic plates.
