The amount of CO2 available in the air dramatically affects the rate of photosynthesis and plant growth. Some plants can increase their growth rate in proportion to the amount of available CO2 -- doubling the amount of CO2 can double the growth rate of some plants when grown under optimal conditions. CompuGas' unique CO2 injection system controls the flow of CO2 from a regulated, pressurized CO2 cylinder into the enclosed growing space, in pre-determined cycles and durations. Cycle and duration times are computed automatically by the AutoCalc feature according to the size of the growing space, the flow of your CO2 tank regulator and your desired ambient CO2 level.

Because most plants cannot absorb CO2 without light, CompuGas uses an advanced fiber-optic mechanism to detect the absence of light and only injects CO2 when there is light. Flexible programming allows fan exhaust to occur when the lights are on or off or both. With CO2 injection so simple and inexpensive, CompuGas with AutoCalc is the smartest solution to CO2 injection!

After programming the CompuGas how big your room growing space is , how much CO2 your tank emits and how much CO2 you want in the air , CompuGas computes the injection and cycle times to maintain the desired level of CO2. It also controls when the exhaust fans will pull all the stale air out and replace it with CO2 enriched air. Since CO2 injection is only useful when your Grow Lights are on , CompuGas uses a fibre-optic mechanism to detect the presence of light and only injects during these times. Plus it also allows CompuGas to be placed  outside the grow room , while the fibre-optic sensor remains inside.
