Building automation for leisure facilities: More experience through smart technology
Sports stadiums, swimming pools and leisure parks use building automation for comfort, energy efficiency & visitor safety
Smart technology for a better visitor and sports experience
Leisure buildings such as sports stadiums, swimming pools and amusement parks have complex requirements in terms of lighting control, ventilation, safety and water treatment. In sports arenas, intelligent LED lighting systems ensure perfect lighting conditions during events, while automatic heating and ventilation systems optimize energy efficiency.In swimming pools and water parks, the automatic control of water quality, temperature and humidity plays a central role. Modern MSR technology solutions monitor and regulate the water chemistry in real time to ensure safe and hygienic operation.
Amusement parks rely on intelligent control systems to efficiently manage rides, queues and visitor flows. Smart ticketing and access systems improve the visitor experience and optimize operational processes.
Zu den Freizeitbauten zählen Sportstadien, Schwimmbäder, Thermen, Freizeitparks, Erlebnisbäder und Eventhallen. Hier optimiert Gebäudeautomation Sicherheit, Energieverbrauch und Besucherkomfort.
LED technology saves up to 80 % of energy costs in stadiums
Intelligent lighting control with LED technology can save sports facilities high energy costs.
Smart water treatment reduces the use of chemicals
Automatic measurement and control technology in swimming pools can reduce the use of chlorine and other chemicals by up to 50 %.

Time management for construction phases
Coordination of MSR integration with other trades, ensuring just-in-time deliveries for sensors, control units and automation components.
System integration & test runs
Performance of functional tests for all networked systems, acceptance testing in accordance with DIN EN ISO 16484 and validation of the I&C systems.
Coordination in the implementation phase
During the implementation of construction measures, various manufacturers, installers and planning companies work together. MSR-Innovations ensures the coordination of all parties and smooth processing.
Building accessibility & installation
Examination of routing options for cable routes, interface integration into existing structures and placement of control cabinets for optimum ease of maintenance.
Conversion during ongoing operations
Conversion or expansion of plants during operation sometimes entails increased planning efforts and replacement measures. Control or energy supply components have to be replaced temporarily, or ongoing operation has to be specially coordinated at times.
Interface management
A building automation project can become very complex due to the numerous interfaces to the trades involved in the project. Thanks to our cross-trade solution approach, the interfaces are already defined in service phase 2.
System identification key
The system identification key (SIK) or user address key (UAK) forms the basis for the planning of the technical building equipment as well as for the subsequent operation of the systems or building. The focus must therefore be on integrating the SIK or UAK at an early stage. These specifications must be fully taken into account by all planners involved in the project from service phase 2 onwards.
Compatibility of the components
The complexity of an energy system is high. We work with a large number of manufacturers for various components in order to develop an optimum overall system from the best individual modules on the market. The interfaces between the different units pose a challenge that we can solve effectively by integrating the higher-level energy management system.
Conversion and modernization of existing systems
When rebuilding existing equipment, various friction points can occur. Are the new components compatible with the old ones? Does it make sense to completely renew parts of the plant? What software is used? It is important to carry out a detailed inventory and to sound out the possibilities.
