Lutron Electronics, the leading supplier and manufacturer of lighting control systems, has completed the new lighting control system for Wimbledon, the world's most famous tennis court. As long as the opening and closing of the course is closed, Lutron's GRAFIK 7000 stadium lighting control system will control more than 120 light sources in the venue in real time, providing the most suitable and glare-free lighting for the central tennis court.
This lighting control system can control both direct and indirect light sources, and it is the first time to use an indirect light source for illumination in such a high-profile stadium. A total of 60 indirect light sources are installed on the retractable brackets on the sky, and the light is projected onto the reflective screen of the sky, and the light can completely cover the entire site.
The Lutron GRAFIK 7000 Stadium lighting control system is programmable for two modes of operation – tournaments and non-champions. The tournament mode is a fully automated preset program where all light sources are tightly controlled to ensure that the effects of light on the athletes are minimized. The non-championship mode is more flexible, with multiple preset lighting scenarios to match the different practice environments and the auditorium. Such a special stadium lighting concept comes from the international engineering design company ME Engineers Ltd.
Corey Berhost, deputy director of ME Engineers Ltd., said: "The opening and closing canopy of Wimbledon Stadium is much lower than that of other professional stadiums in the world, so it may bring glare and affect the athletes. This is when we design the lights. The unique challenge. After communicating with the architects and guests, we introduced the lighting technology of indirect light source. We found that the use of skylight reflection light can create a diffuse light covering the entire venue, while reducing the use of direct lighting fixtures that can cause glare. The number from the selection of canopy fabrics to the color of the retractable brackets plays a complementary role in this integrated system."
In order to match the high-definition broadcast of the TV station, the brightness of the stadium must reach a very high level. The All England Lawn Tennis Club, which is responsible for hosting the Wimbledon Open, also states that lighting control is easy to operate and foolproof, regardless of the opening and closing of the sky.
Lutron's GRAFIK 7000 offers the best central lighting control solution. With powerful processor performance (up to 32 processors), this system can control 16,384 zones and 6,144 controllers for any size stadium. To ensure complete control of all lighting circuits in the venue, Wimbledon Stadium installed three GRAFIK 7000 processors and 24 Lutron XP Softswitch switch panels, which are easily controlled through the user interface of the main control room.
In prescribing each lighting scene, in addition to taking into account the visual comfort of athletes, visitors and viewers, their health and safety are also included in the important considerations of this system. The GRAFIK 7000 processor has been integrated with the signal system of the opening and closing canopy. The screen needs to be opened or closed, and the lights will be sequentially switched to illuminate the most ideal, comfortable and safest light. When the curtain is closed, the light switch in the venue will wait until the skylight is fully closed and will be activated. However, when the curtain is ready to open, the lights on the stadium will be automatically turned off, allowing the lamps to cool for 10 minutes. Then the canopy's stand will slowly open, and you can also manually start the desired lighting scene.
