Priva Connext: the most advanced greenhouse climate computer

The most advanced process computer for perfect cultivation and maximum yield

Introduction
Whatever crops you grow, having an influence over and an insight into the processes involved in your business is paramount to the business itself, and the crops. To guarantee success and create continuity, it is important to provide the ideal growing conditions for your crop. The Priva Connext process computer allows you to connect and manage all of your processes, now and in the future. The result: perfect cultivation and maximum yield.

Maximum yield and production compared to an optimum quality of your crop; that is what you are trying to achieve. At the same time, you want to keep your production costs low.

Ultimate integrator
Growing a successful crop requires the integration of a complex set of systems and processes. For Connext, integration means that all the controls are interconnected, share information, and manage the climate in a cohesive way. A climate system can achieve results in different ways, all of which impact on one another. For example, closing a screen affects light levels, temperature, and energy usage, but also water uptake, moisture balance, and therefore irrigation. As a smart system, Connext is aware of these interdependencies and intervenes immediately without waiting until it’s too late, resulting in a stable climate. This not only applies to climate processes but also to energy management. Integration with Priva Connext is about more than simply bringing climate systems together; it’s about understanding the grower’s intentions and acting on them. This makes Priva Connext the best climate computer and the no. 1 choice of experts across the globe.
Maximum impact on quality and production
Cultivation is all about creating the ideal climate for a crop. Sometimes it’s about a crop in the generative phase, sometimes it’s about ripening a crop, and sometimes it’s about new fruit set. Priva Connext gives the grower the means with which to control the climate in a way that ensures the crop does exactly what they want. As a grower, you’re the expert: with Priva Connext you have the freedom to configure all the environmental factors precisely to your needs. Transpiration, 24-hour temperature, RTR, irrigation, slab weight, moisture, light – you name it, Priva Connext creates the optimal plant environment for you and with you.
Keeping things simple with clear insights
Cultivation has become more complex in recent years due to the increased scale, the amount of technology and processes, and the requirements of the market. Keeping things simple and offering clear insights that you can respond to straight away are therefore more important now than ever before. Priva Connext provides you with the data you need in easy-to-read charts and clear overviews. These insights are easy to find and adapt to your needs, enabling you to focus fully on the crop and the issues that really matter.

Energy management

Priva Connext has been designed to manage all energy flows as efficiently as possible – from heat and cold to electricity, light, CO₂, and water. Based on your insights, Priva Connext aligns all your energy consumers and sources and even factors in the expected costs. Additionally, it’s a useful tool for avoiding grid congestion. Priva closely monitors all developments relating to energy and works constantly on developing new software to optimize your energy management.

LED lighting

LED lighting has become a permanent fixture in today’s greenhouses. There is still a lot to explore when it comes to crop control with different colors. And on the technical side, too, developments are following hot on each other’s heels. It’s only been a few years since the first switchable LED lights were installed in greenhouses. Now we talk about dynamic dimming and adjusting the spectrum or color based on the crop’s needs or the outdoor conditions. Priva Connext makes all this possible.

Although LED lights are energy efficient, it’s important to manage your electricity usage efficiently. Priva Connext features optimization software to solve this complex problem for you.
