A hot afternoon closes stomata, and you get poor nutrient uptake, slow growth and excessive stretch even with a perfect feed. Reading plant temperature and VPD rather than just air temperature, and dimming before the room cooks, keeps the crop in range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnect fixtures or ballasts\u003c\/strong\u003e to wall sockets and link them to the controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnter on and off times\u003c\/strong\u003e and set intensity with the + and - buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet a maximum room temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e so auto-dimming protects the crop unattended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdd the sensors you need\u003c\/strong\u003e to unlock VPD and plant temperature control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTry an asynchronous cycle\u003c\/strong\u003e such as 10 on and 10 off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersion:\u003c\/strong\u003e v1.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFixture capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 160 Dimlux Expert fixtures or Xtreme ballasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lighting, CO2, heating, humidity, fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonitors:\u003c\/strong\u003e CO2, vapour pressure deficit (VPD), plant temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silent built-in timer, variable output, sunrise and sunset simulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Auto dimming, then half or all fixtures switched off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCycle options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Asynchronous timing, e.g. 10 hours on \/ 10 hours off, almost 20% fewer cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCO2 sensing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optional dual beam sensor, controls CO2 generators and cold CO2 installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpansion modules:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aux Box, Fan\/Aux Box, CO2 sensor, CO2 Gas Protect sensor, plant temperature camera, RH sensor, temperature sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dimlux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53445719916810,"sku":null,"price":356.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/light-controller-dimlux-maxi-controller-v1-2-controls-lighting-co2-heaters-and-humidifiers-29629274259640.jpg?v=1785325052","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/dimlux-maxi-controller-v1-2-controls-lighting-co2-heaters-and-humidifi","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
