DAYLIGHT BLOCK
The Daylight Block reduces potato greening during storage by decreasing visible light transmission to the storage building that comes through exhaust and return air openings.
The Daylight Block is size and shaped to closely interfit within the frame, which is installed over the exhaust and return openings, preferably inside the storage building.
The Daylight Block houses special panels made of opaque, non-reflective and ultraviolet light resistant PVC containing free-flowing, air permeable, multicell passageways.
The passageways are constructed in such an offset manner that a linear path for light does not exist, eliminating the need for exhaust hoods to control light passage.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
· INCREASES PROFITS
Protects agricultural products from exposure to sunlight, eliminates greening and reduces losses.
· VERSATILE
Interfits within a frame, which is installed over the louvers, inside a storage building.
· ALLOWS EXTENDED CYCLES
Exhaust louvers can he opened for cycles lasting from as long as 12 to 24 hours, protecting crops from exposure to light.
· ELIMINATES NEED FOR SHADE HOODS
Decreasing the likelihood of ice formation and dirt build up on the building louvers.
· RUGGED CONSTRUCTION
Panels made of opaque, non-reflective and ultraviolet light resistant polyvinyl chloride.
