Just recently, the administration of the club decided to begin a modernization journey by electing to upgrade the club’s irrigation system with cutting-edge CirrusPro technology and Rain Bird independent control, focusing on golf sustainability. At the moment, Green Natur has implemented this system in two of the holes, and they intend to implement it across the entire course by March 2024.
Daniel Sanchez, who is the golf sales manager for Rain Bird’s Iberian Peninsula division, is overjoyed. He says, “The Los Lagos Golf Club’s dedication to innovation, water conservation, and energy efficiency with CirrusPro and IC technology truly elevates its course quality.”
On the subject of the benefits that Rain Bird’s Integrated Control System (IC System) offers, Daniel provides further explanation by stating, “In today’s landscape, efficiency is key.” Through the provision of precise control and a wide range of benefits that extend beyond irrigation, the IC System improves operational efficiency. He then goes on to explain the capabilities of the system, pointing out how a greenkeeper may remotely monitor and handle individual components by utilising a variety of different devices. “The Integrated Control Interface Plus (ICI+) and IC CONNECT enhance flexibility, facilitating comprehensive management,” according to what he continues to explain.
Daniel places a strong emphasis on the streamlined architecture of the system, which simplifies installation, reduces cable usage by 90 percent, removes the need for splicing by fifty percent, and eliminates the requirement for additional equipment such as satellites and decoders. He concludes with the statement, “This efficient design not only ensures system reliability but also optimises labour costs, making expansions straightforward by integrating components wherever a MAXI cable is present.”
