Commercial Greenhouse Climate Control Solution
A reference climate automation design for approximately 1 hectare of commercial greenhouse production — multi-zone logic, electrical cabinet coordination, and scalable equipment control.
Control Functions
The automation goal is stable multi-zone climate operation with coordinated equipment and a clear path to remote monitoring.
Each climate zone can operate independently with its own logic and equipment set.
Large motor groups can start in sequence to reduce electrical impact on the site supply.
Cooling sequences combine fans, cooling pumps, and environmental monitoring in one plan.
Ready for PKY Cloud, remote monitoring, and operating data history when the project requires it.
System Architecture
Climate zones feed dedicated electrical control cabinets. The PKY Climate Controller provides the automation logic layer. Cabinets switch protected power to fans, pumps, and cooling equipment — the controller does not replace high-power motor switching.
Example Project Configuration
This reference solution shows how PKYDrip designs greenhouse climate automation for a commercial cultivation area of approximately 1 hectare — not a product list, but a complete system structure for zones, cabinets, and climate equipment.
- Total area: approximately 1 hectare
- 4 independent climate zones
- Each zone approximately 60 m × 40 m
- Dedicated electrical control room
Climate Zones
Four independent climate zones allow different bays or crop blocks to run their own environmental logic while sharing the same automation platform.
- Independent climate control logic per zone
- Local equipment management for fans, pumps, and cooling
- Expandable sensor integration as monitoring needs grow
Controlled Equipment (Reference Scale)
Equipment counts below are a design reference for a large commercial greenhouse — final quantities follow your layout, electrical capacity, and climate strategy.
- 80 exhaust ventilation fans
- 60 circulation fans
- 4 cooling water pumps
- 4 independent electrical control cabinets
- Environmental sensors for zone feedback
Designed for Long-Term Expansion and Reliable Operation
Large greenhouse projects often grow over time, and equipment requirements may change as production expands. PKY Climate Control System uses a flexible architecture so operators can manage complex equipment, reduce operational risk, and support future development.
- Independent control cabinets
- Configurable equipment groups
- Adjustable startup sequences
- Expandable automation functions
Control Flexibility
The system allows equipment to operate based on actual greenhouse requirements — instead of starting all fans at the same time, PKY enables staged operation such as Fan Group 1, then a delay, then Fan Group 2, then cooling equipment.
- Reduce electrical impact from simultaneous motor startup
- Improve equipment lifetime through controlled sequencing
- Lower system operating risk
- Simplify future upgrades as production expands
Multi-level Control
The same greenhouse can use individual, group, and zone strategies together — so a single device, an equipment group, or a full climate zone can operate according to climate conditions, crop requirements, and production plans.
- Individual control — a single device can be operated independently
- Group control — multiple devices work together as one equipment group
- Zone control — Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3, and Zone 4 can run independent strategies
Why Choose a Flexible Climate Automation System?
A good agricultural automation system should not only work today — it should support future farm development. PKY Climate Control System helps commercial greenhouse operators build for long-term operation.
- Avoid unnecessary equipment upgrades
- Improve system reliability
- Expand automation step-by-step
- Maintain long-term operation as the facility grows
How This Greenhouse Solution Is Structured
A practical commercial layout coordinates four climate zones through four cabinets and one climate automation logic layer — with room to expand equipment groups and startup sequences as the greenhouse grows.
- Each zone maps to its own electrical control cabinet
- Controller logic coordinates schedules, rules, and alarms
- Fans, pumps, and cooling equipment execute cabinet-switched power
