5.6 Fresh Air Inlet and Exhaust Ports
The fresh air inlet allows the operator to manually adjust the rate at which fresh air is introduced
into the chamber. The adjustment knob is located on the lower-left side of the chamber and can
be adjusted from fully closed (no fresh air) to fully open to allow up to 20 ft
3
/min (0.57m
3
/min) of
air exchange.
The fresh air inlet assembly contains a foam filter to help prevent light, dust, and larger
particulate matter from entering the growth area. This filter should be cleaned monthly to
prevent a build-up of foreign material that could restrict airflow. Refer to the Conviron Chambers
Maintenance & Troubleshooting Manual for more information.
Fresh air is drawn into the bottom of the chamber through the inlet port by the chamber’s
variable speed fan located in the ceiling compartment, and then the chamber air is exhausted
through the top exhaust port (Figure 5-3).
