Now let’s take a closer look at how the system works, along with its features and benefits for golf irrigation specialists:

How it works

  • Three to five sensors are buried in each green at critical root zone levels.
  • Additional sensors are buried in fairways, tee boxes and planters.
  • Above-ground relays are installed on or in existing irrigation pedestals.
  • Wireless MESH networking links all sensors to the central control system.
  • Moisture, temperature and salinity readings are displayed in real-time.

Benefits

  • Instantly tracks soil moisture levels and adjusts irrigation without risking turf quality.
  • Stops overwatering, which promotes root growth.
  • Detects dry areas before turf health suffers.
  • Tracks salt buildup and schedules flushings before it’s too late.
  • Provides positive confirmation that a flushing has reduced soil salts. Know when and how much water to flush with.

Features

  • Two distinct depths in the soil profile – one at critical root zone level and a second one, five inches lower. Independent measurements are given from each depth.
  • MESH routing technology offers complete coverage over difficult topography — even in remote canyon courses; lack of wires between the repeaters and between the probe and sensors give you the freedom to install this wireless system anywhere.
  • Turf Guard repeater mounts in most Toro irrigation satellite pedestals. An external repeater is available for other models, including non-Toro pedestals.
  • Supports up to 500 sensors per course.
  • Sensor reading sent every 5 minutes.
  • Automatic network configuration and failure recovery.
  • Plots trends and compares historical and current readings.
  • Lynx® Control System integration
