SWYCH FOR
GOLF & SPORTS TURF
Mount a MD1/2 microPLC in the pump shed — wireless pump control and sensor data without trenching the fairway.
THE OLD WAY
- 01.Adding a new monitoring point means trenching cable across finished turf — $50-$100 per metre in civil works.
- 02.Disrupts play, damages surfaces, and takes weeks to recover.
- 03.Lightning strikes regularly fry long hardwired cable runs and decoder systems.
THE SWYCH WAY
- 01.Drop-in MD1/2 microPLC: Mounts in the pump shed, reads Modbus sensors, and bridges data wirelessly back to the clubhouse — zero trenching.
- 02.Relay outputs: Wire a pump contactor or solenoid valve to the MD1/2 microPLC for remote start/stop without running new command cable.
- 03.500 m+ LoRa/HaLow range covers the course from a central point — line-of-sight over open turf is ideal.
- 04.Speaks Modbus RTU/TCP and MQTT: Slots into your existing irrigation controller, BMS, or SCADA without a rip-and-replace.
