Groscale - Priva Compass Installation Manual

Groscale

Priva Groscale allows you to accurately follow the fluctuation in the slab weight and thus the amount
of water present in the substrate slab. This will give you an insight into the amount of water absorbed
by your plants in the course of the day. When the right software is installed on the process computer,
this will give you an extra set of tools to regulate and keep an eye on the water dosage, as well as
to protect your plants from being deprived of water as a result of substrate slabs becoming too dry.
You can avoid loss of production and even achieve an increase in production by simply reacting
correctly to the amount of water present in the slabs.
The Groscale consists of two or four weighing platforms connected to a weighing indicator. The
weighing platforms are fitted with a sensor which records the measured weight. The weighing
indicator combines the signals of the weighing platforms and converts these into a total weight.
Weight measurements are taken continually by the weighing indicator. The computer will allow you
to request collective measurement values in a table and a diagram. For further information on
viewing and using the measurement values, please refer to your process computer manuals.
The Groscale is developed with a view to highly accurate measurements of substrate slab weights.
Therefore, the device is more accurate than is strictly necessary for the measurement of moisture
content; this makes the system suitable for extension in the future, even if these extensions require
a higher level of accuracy.
