1) up to 98 % of the set value
2) value without illumination
3) upon door opening or water exchange in humidity cylinder: > ± 1.5 % r.H., recovery time approx. 20 min.
4) these energy consumption values can be used upon calculation of air conditioning systems
5) maximal value, measured in center of usable volume
* Light measurement using Quantum sensors with cosinus correction positioned vertically upside.

All specified technical data apply for standard equipment operating at an ambient temperature of + 20 °C (68 °F), with line voltage fluctuations of ± 10%. These typical average values for series equipment were determined in accordance with the BINDER factory standard. They are based upon the recommended distances from the inner chamber walls, namely 10% of height, width and depth. Differing ambient temperatures or variances in the design of individual equipment may produce different performance data.

We therefore recommend that equipment be calibrated and/or validated on a case-by-case basis when working at the extremes of the permissible ambient temperature range.

• 

  Different illumination

  Lighting can be selected based upon application and light intensity. Day light lamps / growth lamps / Arabidopsis lamps.
• 

  Reinforced refrigerating

  To compensate for heat from the lamps.
• 

  Waterproof interior power socket in the inner chamber

  Maximum 500 W, switched via the main switch, with associated plug (protection type IP 65), 230 V 1N ~50/60 Hz.
• 

  Classification of illumination conditions

  Radiometric measurements of the visible spectral range, with definition and documentation of intensity distribution from a light module on three measurement levels.
• 

  Zero-voltage relay alarm outputs

  Monitoring function for temperature and humidity monitoring, forwarding of alarm signals (e.g. computer, cell phone).
• 

  Analog outputs

  For temperature 4 - 20 mA with 6-pin DIN socket (non-adjustable output).
• 

  High intensity illumination

  High intensity illumination under the chamber celling with additional daylight fluorescent tubes. Thermal isolation and ventilation to simulate natural lighting. Restricted humidity range < 30 % r.H. at 20 °C (68 °F).
