Vertical Air Solutions® Launches VAS 2.0: Revolutionizing Vertical Farming with the Next Generation of Innovative In-Rack Airflow System
[Walker, MI, October 26, 2023] – Vertical Air Solutions®, a pioneer in the indoor vertical farming industry is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking product, VAS 2.0. This innovative system represents a significant leap forward in the world of vertical farming, offering growers a more efficient and cost-effective solution for optimizing plant growth.
Vertical Air Solutions®’ patented In-Rack Airflow System, designed by growers for growers has set a new standard for uniform, top-down airflow in multi-layered rolling rack platforms. The arrival of VAS 2.0 brings a host of improvements, making it the definitive choice for any vertical farm looking to achieve consistent crop yields, enhance crop health, and save valuable space.
The Power of VAS 2.0:
The new VAS 2.0 offers increased consistency, mitigating microclimates and homogenizes environmental conditions, ensuring consistent Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) and steady growth rates. By maintaining even leaf temperatures and facilitating gas exchange, VAS 2.0 promotes transpiration and photosynthetic rates, leading to healthier and more robust crops.
Strategic vertical airflow ensures uniform temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels throughout the grow space, optimizing a crop’s potential. The compact and sleek system integrates seamlessly into most vertical racking systems. It features the thinnest form factor on the market while providing superior performance.
The modernized version also offers cost savings and sustainability with the energy-efficient system that maximizes air circulation while minimizing power consumption. Consumers can tailor airflow meet their plants’ unique needs with adjustable fan speeds and a modular system design.
VAS 2.0 is not just a product; it’s a solution developed by growers who understand the importance of reliable, consistent performance.
Key Features of VAS 2.0:
EC Inline Fans reduce power consumption and allow for granular adjustment of air velocity, ensuring efficiency and cost savings. It offers maximized fan performance and reduction of duct turbulence improving airflow with its dual lofted plenum design. The corrugated polypropylene ducts make it humidity-resistant and compatible with common cleaning chemicals.
Not only is the system more efficient, but it also has improved construction with pre-sealed edges and secure duct connections that virtually eliminate air leakage, ensuring the integrity of your system. It works in any space thanks to the thinnest form factor on the market, reducing overall system height.
VAS 2.0 is pressure balanced, providing equal flow front-to-back and side-to-side at variable row lengths, improving the exit angle and overall performance.
The optimized duct dimensions increase flow rates and duct velocities, optimizing efficiency while fan mounting brackets offer precise mounting height of the system and adjustment of duct spacing, ensuring flexibility and adaptability.
The new version features an improved circular hole pattern ensures maximum air dispersion, throw distance, and velocity, optimizing your crop’s environment. The duct is lightweight, ships flat, and features a pop-up design for easy installation, reducing installation time and complexity.
Vertical Air Solutions® is excited about the release of VAS 2.0, saying, ” Vertical Air Solutions® is committed to continuous innovation and improvement in vertical farming. With VAS 2.0, we are proud to offer a solution that exceeds the needs and expectations of growers worldwide. This system will enable growers to achieve consistent, high-quality crop yields while saving space and reducing operating costs. We believe VAS 2.0 will be a game-changer in the industry.”
Vertical Air Solutions® is known for its dedication to improving the efficiency and yield of its customers, along with its commitment to stable and interdependent partnerships in the vertical farming ecosystem. With VAS 2.0, the company is poised to deliver on these promises and set new industry standards for in-rack air circulation systems in indoor vertical farming.
