MUSHROOM cultivation controller

The MUSHROOM controller has been designed to control the climate parameters in the mushrooms cutivation chambers. It maintains the constant humidity (by contolling the watering) and temperature (by controlling heating and cooling devices). Also monitors the soil temperature (linked with alarms) and logs the cultivation history. It is possible to connect several humidity and temperature sensors.

Two operating modes: manual (the controller keeps the desired humidity and temperature) and auto (preconfigured 3-phase cycle operation: growing, shock, stabilized).

Key features

• Humidity and temperature stabilization (by control of cooling, heating and watering)
• An option of keeping constant air temperature in function of soil’s temperature
• Up to 8 hybrid humidity and temperature sensors, additionally up to 8 air and 8 soil temperature sensors
• The humidity messured with precise, processor-controlled psychrometric sensors
• Digital transmission between sensors and the controller sharing a single bus up to 800m long
• Temperature resolution of 0.1°C and change resolution of 0.01°C/hour
• Humidity resolution of 0.1% and change resolution of 0.01%/hour
• Manual or automatic 3-phase farming scheme with all-time correction option
• Events logging (150 days of temperature and humidity measurements)
• PC computer interoperability: software working under Microsoft Windows 98 or newer (including the latest Vista version)
• Solid-state control outputs designed to direct drive the 230V_AC coils of electro-valves and switches
• Relay alarm output (covering climate conditions and the device state monitoring)
