WRITTEN VIDEO OVERVIEW

What the demonstration
is intended to show.

The video introduces Yunxue’s development work on fertigation control and presents an EC-control demonstration at a target EC of 2.00 mS/cm. The stated EC variation at steady state is ±0.03mS/cm; verify performance under the conditions agreed for your project.

This is a manufacturer demonstration. The number should be read with the test setup and control version, and should not be treated as an independent calibration certificate or a universal field-performance guarantee.

For a procurement decision, ask for the configuration, test conditions and measurement records relevant to the machine being supplied.

This overview summarizes the subject of the video; it is not a verbatim transcript.

INTERPRETING AN EC RESULT

Four essential technical dimensions.

01

Steady-state variation

Measures how tightly the monitored EC value stays around the target setpoint under continuous settled flow. The stated EC variation at steady state is ±0.03mS/cm. Verify results against this range under the agreed test conditions once the system has stabilized.

02

Measurement accuracy

Describes how close displayed readings are to traceable laboratory standards. Absolute accuracy requires calibrated industrial electrodes, routine calibration against standard solutions, and dynamic temperature compensation.

03

Dynamic response

Evaluates settling time and transient overshoot when the machine starts, changes irrigation recipes, or responds to line flow step-changes. Dynamic stability prevents sudden shock to root systems.

04

Test conditions & applicability

The demonstration was recorded on a workshop test loop under controlled water chemistry, continuous flow, and specific GXF configurations. Results depend on local operating parameters and cannot be assumed for uncalibrated field conditions. Yunxue provides verifiable data rather than unverified claims.

AGREE THE ACCEPTANCE TEST

Make the comparison meaningful.

Use the same operating conditions and measurement method when comparing machines or control versions.

Information to record for a project-specific EC test
RecordWhy it matters
Machine model & controller versionDistinguishes the configuration tested from other models or revisions.
Water source, temperature & initial ECDefines the incoming water and measurement conditions.

Setpoint, sampling interval & durationSeparates startup behavior from a defined steady-state window.
Raw readings & pass criteriaAllows variation, target deviation and settling behavior to be evaluated consistently.

TEST & ACCURACY QUESTIONS

Know what a precision figure means.

Does EC ±0.03mS/cm at steady state mean absolute measurement accuracy?

No. The stated EC variation at steady state (±0.03mS/cm) describes allowable variation around the target setpoint under specified conditions; it is not proof of absolute measurement accuracy. Absolute accuracy requires calibrated sensors, reference standard solutions, and regular probe maintenance.

How do steady-state variation, measurement accuracy, and dynamic response differ?

Steady-state variation is reading stability under constant conditions; measurement accuracy is truth against a reference liquid standard; dynamic response is recovery time and overshoot when recipes or flow rates shift. A complete evaluation requires looking at all three dimensions.

Can the same result be assumed in every greenhouse or model?

No. Field results depend on your selected model (mixing tank vs inline injection), controller revision, incoming water chemistry, fertilizer stock concentration, sensor cleanliness, and hydraulic backpressure. We establish performance criteria specifically for the machine and setup quoted.

Can I request factory testing before equipment dispatch?

Yes. Yunxue conducts hydraulic leak checks, sensor calibration tests, and electrical sequence testing on all machines prior to export crating. Specific factory acceptance testing (FAT) logs can be provided upon request.

Can I discuss testing and upgrading an existing machine?

Yes. Send your current machine model, control system details, existing EC/pH sensor type, and operational traces. We evaluate whether a control upgrade or skid replacement is appropriate.
