Notice Title

RBGKEW950 Plant Growth Chamber x 2

Notice Description

RBGKEW950 Plant growth chamber x 2 RBGKEW requires two plant growth chambers for the use of researchers to be able to grow plants in and ex vitro. The chambers must be identical and will be used for experiments needing fine control of environmental conditions. Timing and levels of lighting, temperature and humidity must all be able to be controlled. The chambers must be fitted with shelving that can be adjusted to cater for differing plant sizes. The humidity must be provided by means of a water tank which can be kept topped up manually by the user - there is no reverse osmosis water feed at the site of installation. There is a restriction in footprint and height of the appliances both for delivery access and for final site of installation.
