You control the parameters for your research project!

No matter what climate scenarios you are working with, from dry to humid, hot to cold, whether a weak breeze or a hurricane, lots of sunlight or high humidity, groundwater levels high or low, everything can be simulated with the integrated systems in EcoLab flex. When it comes to soil, you have the choice of either using UGT’s proven Ready-To-Go lysimeter sampling technology and getting the undisturbed soil body from the field into your lab, or creating your own soil as needed!

The EcoLab flex offers a well thought-out concept from the idea, through the implementation to the result. Easy operation, uncomplicated monitoring and quick changes of scenarios from anywhere via the innovative PLC control system for all actuators (e.g. lighting, irrigation, air conditioning). Insights on the development of your project or the growth of the plants are possible with the integrated camera in the atmosphere unit anytime and anywhere with a smart device.

Two components – great effect!

The EcoLab 500 consists of two main components that build vertically on each other: Atmosphere Unit and Floor Unit.

•     The EcoLab flex soil unit for investigating processes in the soil and the influence of flora and fauna on the soil.
•     The EcoLab flex atmosphere unit as an above-ground habitat for flora and fauna.

Depending on the application, all system components can be individually equipped with appropriate sensors for monitoring important system parameters and processes. We will help you make the right choice for your project!
