Daylight Blocker

Daylight Blocker          

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 inter-fit 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, multi-cell 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:

Inter-fits within a frames, which is installed over the louvers, inside a storage building.

ALLOWS EXTENDED CYCLES:

Exhaust louvers can be opened for cycles lasting from as long as 12 to 24 hours, protecting crops from any 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.
