Data driven turf care from Rhenac sports

tracking as well as improving a stadium field per square metre has lastly ended up being reality. The RHENAC sports LED CLS R-BL-1750, established by RHENAC GreenTec AG, integrates different technologies that can provide water, light, nutrients, warm as well as oxygen precisely as needed as well as at the time of the day or in the quantity it is most-needed, as Horst Theisen, CEO of Rhenac sports LED explains.  

Although it has been typical understanding for numerous years that turf needs water, oxygen as well as light to stay in great condition, the science behind precisely exactly how much, at what moment as well as the specs of the doses to be provided is fairly new.

Horst Theisen, CEO, Rhenac sports LED, explained:

The introduction of CLS innovation made it remove that light itself provides numerous variables that are essential to think about when light is supplemented to a turf pitch. After studying turf needs for over 8 years, together with the university of Munich, the German business succeeded in establishing the innovation to provide accordingly. Its capability to provide the total light spectrum has seen RHENAC sports LED ended up being a game changer in preserving as well as improving stadium field conditions.

The total light spectrum varieties from ultraviolet light all the method to infrared light. In our research study with the university of Camiseta Olympique Lyonnais Munich, we recognized that turf prefers different light spectrums as well as high qualities in the program of a day.

As studies have shown different light spectrums as well as high qualities have a fantastic effect on plant growth, RHENAC sports LED has gone to fantastic lengths to fine-tune the technology. 

Various options
The accuracy of the RHENAC sports LED CLS innovation has made it possible to grow turf even in locations or environments that don’t experience any type of daylight whatsoever. This has persuaded RHENAC sports LED that it can grow turf in any type of stadium, including those for which the style is not conducive to natural turf growth, or Camiseta River Plate completely enclosed sports venues for which natural turf would typically not be thought about as a surface.

Theisen explained:

Research has shown that turf plants subjected to the RHENAC sports LED total light spectrum innovation experienced a considerable boost in branching. 

RHENAC sports LED has converted the understanding as well as innovation into four different versions of its CLS turf grow technology, as Thiesen outlined:

It varieties from the R-ML-30 system for utilize in the goal mouth area to the R-ML-100 as well as R-ML-200 units that can cover to half a field to our top of the variety R-BL-1750 unit. The latter is a completely automated system that utilizes data from different sources to automate as well as fine-tune the care the turf is given.

Each rig is fitted with different sensors that utilize GPS coordinates to establish precisely where in the world the rig is positioned. In addition, these sensors assist identifying sunrise as well as sunset, two moments that will identify the colour of light as well as light intensity the turf needs. based on the input of these sensors the illumination program kicks in or finishes.

Fully automated field care
Earlier this year, RHENAC sports LED commissioned its very first R-BL-1750 for the German football league, as Thiesen explained:

Here, the innovation has been fitted on two steel trusses that span the entire width of the field. The foldable style of the trusses makes it possible to store them in a storage area beneath the stand or in a recess at the far end of the field. The fairly restricted demands for the storage area can quickly be thought about when developing a new stadium. They likewise enable for simple retrofitting. 

The R-BL-1750 integrates different technologies as well as resources, as Thiesen continued:

In addition to CLS turf grow technology, we likewise offer irrigation as well as heating technology. huge fans that can be put next to the field have likewise been integrated into the technology. based on the parameters the administration system receives from different sources, including a weather condition station, the administration system activates the different technologies as well as handles the intensity of their contributions. Each truss is split into ten sections. Each section can be programmed individually. This enables RHENAC sports LED to utilize the exact same innovation to run different programs for different sections on the field simultaneously. As the innovation deploys as well as operates automatically, the field manager can decrease the time spent on the stadium field as well as focus on different areas of interest.

Computerising the pitch
Theisen highlighted that the capability to provide the total light spectrum allows RHENAC sports LED numerous much more chances to enhance the turf condition:

The general plant health, the density of the sward, root development, shear stamina of the playing field, in addition to its susceptibility for diseases, or absence thereof, are all identified by the availability of light as well as light quality. The next step is to integrate even much more as well as different technologies to identify the precise settings to enhance specific parameters. turf is extremely delicate, as well as parameters like its pH-level, its acidity level or the warm tension it potentially experiences likewise influence its condition. We are currently hectic aligning the communication between the sensors that report on these conditions with the software application that handles the turf care technology.

Light, light intensity as well as light colour are all parameters that, integrated with temperature control, irrigation as well as oxygen, identify the high quality of a stadium pitch. After having examined the needs of turf for numerous years, RHENAC sports LED has grasped equating these needs into settings of contemporary innovation that can assist supplement or even grow grass, no matter the natural conditions.
