Controller EL 1

Gavita Controller EL1/EL2 Lighting control in your hands Gavita Master controller is used to control your Gavita e-series devices. It offers maximum control over the lighting of your growing spaces, easy and quick installation and safe operation. Simply connect the controller to the ballasts using the T-splitter according to the wiring diagram, set the controller of all connected ballasts to EXT (external control) and you can leave everything to your Gavita Master Controller and your specified settings.

This electronic controller is a great replacement for expensive time switches and other external control and communication elements of lighting systems. Two other very important factors are the automatic dimming function depending on the ambient temperature and the emergency switch-off function. Automatic dimming works by setting a maximum temperature value that is acceptable for your crops, and once the controller detects that the actual temperature exceeds this value, it will automatically dim the light output of the lamp to a value that ensures a subsequent temperature drop and continues to continuously monitor and maintain this condition. In the event that your climatic conditions completely fail, for example due to a failure of the ventilation system, the maximum critical temperature value can be set again for this situation, exceeding which will ensure absolute switching off of the lighting and it will be switched back on when the temperature drops to the optimum you have set.

The controller can be connected to your home alarm system for instant notification.
Up to 40 Gavita e-series can be connected to one of these devices.
