Urban areas are expanding every day, which decreases space available for agriculture. That is why many manufacturers are oriented toward discovering solutions that would enable smart hydroponic farming indoors.
It is known that the key difference between traditional growing methods and hydroponics is how nutrients are applied to roots. While in traditional agriculture roots receive nutrients via soil, In hydroponics nutrients are supplied to plant roots via mineral nutrient solutions in a water solvent. Chillers are vital to successful hydroponic grows because they keep the nutrient solution in the ideal temperature range. In this case, RIGID provides the best temperature for Hydroponics by using our patent compact liquid chiller.
Vertical farming is a unique solution for growing plants anywhere. Thanks to its unique design and cultivation system, it can grow various crops in ideal conditions. That includes maintaining the right temperature, which is where coaxial chiller DV1920E-C comes into play. 24V DC Chiller - DV1920E-C keeps the nutrient solution in the ideal temperature range. The unique compact cooler manufactured by RIGID ensures that the temperature on the “farm” is kept at optimal levels.
