A Modular and Customizable System Based on the Needs and Wants of Each Grower

Take your greenhouse production to new heights! With the flexibility to control various elements of your operation with one system, delve into the potential of our intelligent technology and elevate your production to the next level.

Temperature

Certain plants need specific temperatures at different times of the day to flourish. The MAXIMUS controller gives growers the ability to have several temperature set points throughout the day. It manages equipment accordingly to monitor the greenhouse temperature and keep it at the requested levels.

Ventilation

With the MAXIMUS system, managing natural or mechanical ventilation has never been easier. Once equipment such as roof vents, side curtains, positive pressure fans or exhaust fans is installed and settings are entered, the controller will automatically operate this equipment to achieve the desired temperature and humidity levels.

CO2 Levels

Plants absorb carbon dioxide so they can use photosynthesis as a source of energy. Enhancing CO2 concentrations within the greenhouse can significantly boost this process. The MAXIMUS controller fine-tunes the levels of CO2 by managing ventilation and CO2 injection, optimizing the environment for plant vitality and growth.

Humidity

Maintaining optimal humidity levels in your greenhouse is important for plant growth. At higher or lower humidity levels, plant physiological processes may slow down, leading to delayed growth and lower quality output. With devices like mist systems, sprinklers and fans, the MAXIMUS controller obtains optimal humidity levels that are key to plant health.

Irrigation

Over or under watering can have damaging effects on plants. To prevent this, the MAXIMUS controller offers the following functionalities and monitoring capabilities:

  • Basic irrigation: One irrigation system (pump and valves) for one climatic zone.
  • Advanced irrigation: One irrigation system for several climate zones using multiple programs.
  • Irrigation cycles based on current weather scenarios.
  • Irrigation using tensiometers and soil moisture sensors. Sensors detect and monitor soil moisture levels to automatically start and stop irrigation.
  • A timer on the main water valve determines when the water lines will be opened and closed.
  • Water meters indicate the volume of water the irrigation lines have received during the day.
  • Water pressure sensors send alerts to the grower if there is a problem with any of the irrigation lines.
  • Dynamic evaluation of irrigation start time and stop time using sunrise and sunset times.

Valued Features That Make a Difference

Amperage Readings

The MAXIMUS controller offers, as a standard feature, continuous amperage draw readings of all equipment connected to it. Having access to this information offers two main advantages:

  • If an equipment fails to start, such as a heater, an alarm will be sent to the grower.
  • A low or high amperage reading can indicate to the grower that preventive maintenance is required and reduce the risk of equipment failure or unplanned shutdown.

Generator Monitoring

The system has the ability to connect to your generator and provide valuable information such as weekly runtime tests, battery voltage, fuel level, oil pressure, etc. It automatically alerts growers if runtime tests fail, or if fuel or oil readings fall below certain levels. Extended power outages can have devastating effects on your plants. MAXIMUS can help you avoid falling victim to your generator not starting when you need it most.

Alarms

Stay connected to your production 24/7/365. Whether it is equipment that fails to operate or parameters that fall outside the set threshold, the controller will send an alarm (via SMS or email) as soon as an anomaly is detected allowing for quick and immediate action. For larger operations, MAXIMUS has a scheduling tool allowing growers the ability to set up a schedule of who is on alarm duty for the given day and the user’s preferred method of receiving these alarms.
