2 CHAMBER FEATURES
2.1 Configurations
The base GEN1000 chamber can be fitted with any of the following specially configured kits and
each kit is also available with an LED lighting option:
An SH kit is either a two-tier or an SH-XTIER three-tier configuration using horizontal
airflow over multiple shelves optimizing the growth area for shorter plants, like
Arabidopsis. Ideal for research in propagation, genetics, physiology, and other moderate
light experiments.
The TA kit is a single-tier configuration providing upward airflow, maximum growth height
and light intensity for taller plants such as cereal crops, horticultural plants, and
silviculture.
The TC kit is a four-tier configuration using low light to maximize space. It also provides
upward airflow minimizing condensation in petri dishes and jars used in propagation and
genetics experiments.
The IN kit is a four-tier configuration using horizontal airflow and low light levels
optimizing the incubation of plantlets and insects.
2.2 Control System
The control system provides advanced programming capabilities, allowing ramping or stepping
of environmental conditions to match research requirements. User programmable ″set and
forget″ alarms track the chamber operation relative to user-defined setpoints. Visual and audible
notifications provide a further level of protection. For remote monitoring and control, the
chamber comes ready to communicate with Conviron’s Central Management™ or CMP-Link.
Refer to the included Conviron CMP6060 Operator’s Manual for complete instructions.
2.3 Air Intake and Exhaust
The chamber includes manually adjustable fresh air intake and exhaust ports to allow for
chamber air exchanges. Exhaust air flows to ambient with no additional connection required.
2.4 Instrumentation Ports
One 2″ (50mm) access port with a light-tight cap is provided on the right side of the chamber.
The port allows small instruments and monitor leads to be inserted into the chamber without
opening the front door, and without significantly changing the environment within the chamber.
2.5 Network Connectivity
An RJ45 port is included for connection to the facility network.
