The light strategy is linked to the production calendar

It is appropriate to start the coordination of the green house lighting and heating with the cultivation programme. The period during which and for which production purpose the plant population uses the building shall be specified. The operating time of the additional lighting shall not be separated from how the temperature and humidity are treated. If the two schemes are made as a separate purchasing decision, easily different operating assumptions may be made. The joint programme does not provide for a single general switching time. It sets out the target conditions and variable settings to be addressed for plant, technology and local operations.

The loads may occur simultaneously

In mechanical and electrical coordination, conditions in which more than one equipment is operating simultaneously shall also be examined. The related lighting, pumps, ventilation elements and heat source equipment do not always require provision during a separate period. The necessary capacity and the allowed order of operations are therefore a joint design task. In addition to the performance list of equipment, provide an operational explanation. M Van der Hoeven plant-dependent solutions and Hoogendoorn system integration gives a clue to this approach. However, the specific consistency must be determined on the basis of the technology, local infrastructure and the rules chosen, not on the assumption of a general multiplier.

Location, access and location

The spatial connection between lamps and internal mechanical elements should also be checked in sections. In addition to umbrellas, herbicides, fans and maintenance routes, lighting also has its own space and access requirements. The safe access to work shall be consulted with the supplier of the equipment and the participants in the construction. The location of the sensors may not remain possible: it is necessary to understand, in addition to local influences, which plant environment data are coming from. If the transfer of one system changes the measurement site, the control assumptions shall be reviewed. The drawings should therefore not be separate, isolated, professional snapshots.

The test is organized for changes in condition

The transfer should follow how the common system reacts to start, shut down and change the climate target. The operator shall understand the difference between manual and automatic operation and which system is affected by which setting. The change in the production programme should be recorded so that consumption and climate data can be interpreted later. A successful equipment test does not demonstrate the later operational results of the plant stock. Technical take-over and fine-tuning of cultivation are a separate process with different responsibilities and data. The joint operational plan makes these connections visible to the customer.

Before new lighting, you can also use the existing plan

If new lighting is later delivered to a working production house, previous mechanical and electrical data should be reviewed together. The change in the programme may modify the simultaneous loads and the operator's daily tasks. Before installation of the device, the intended position, the necessary connections and the control connection shall be shown. In addition to the new system operating test, the reaction of the existing climate system should be tested. The investment is therefore not an isolated lamp exchange, but a documented change, which can be followed by subsequent operating data.

Questions to reconcile the project

  • What period of production and target condition are the lighting working?
  • What kind of simultaneous electrical and mechanical stress is the plan examining?
  • What test shows the joint functioning of lighting change and climate control?

The related international system solutions are provided by these primary manufacturers and execution sites. The decision aspects of the project shall be interpreted independently by the article; the specific size and content of the undertaking shall be clarified on the basis of the investment data.
