Newcastle pitch features fully automatic controllable irrigation

When the decision was made to install a new playing surface and irrigation system at Newcastle United, MJ Abbott selected Rain Bird products.

950E valve-in-head sprinklers were chosen for the perimeter and the corners of the pitch. 8005 pop up rotors and Rain Curtain nozzles that ensure uniform water distribution, were selected for the central areas.

Integral to the new pitch was the SISGrass Hydrobox system which was developed specifically for use with pop-up irrigation systems, including Rain Bird. The IQ Cloud Platform, used in conjunction with an ESP-LXD controller, gives the groundstaff a real time, fully automatic remote control system.
