CONTROLLERS

Control systems will help to simplify running your greenhouse and optimize growing conditions. The controller can be as simple as a thermostat or a greenhouse controller that will operate multiple accessories. The number of accessories that you have will determine what kind of controller you will need. If you have three or more accessories including the roof vent, you will want a controller to operate your accessories. These controllers, once programmed to meet your growing requirements, will allow the greenhouse to run efficiently without constant supervision.
Honeywell Single-Stage Thermostat
This thermostat can be used to control individual equipment, such as a heater, fan, intake shutter, and an exhaust fan.

Dayton Two-Speed Thermostat
This thermostat can be used to control two separate pieces of equipment at the same time or a single piece of equipment with two speeds.

Four-Stage Controller
Reduce the need for separate thermostats for each piece of eqipment with a four-stage controller. For greater ease of automation, the four-stage controller will control up to four single-speed items, such as one heat stage with three separate cooling stages. A solar-shielded remote sensor is included with this controller. Electronic accuracy and remote sensing offer flexibility and more precise climate control within the greenhouse. Wiring diagrams for the four-stage controller are included for most applications.

Penetration Panels
A penetration panel may be necessary for installation of your ventilation equipment. The penetration panel can replace any section or panel of glass of greenhouse covering depending on where you need your equipment located. Each penetration panel is made of 3/16” clear polycarbonate.
