Installation planning

Plan the installation of the unit. Jet height, jet range and water quality notably influence the quality of the
water jet and the light emittance. Careful planning and taking the environmental conditions into account
will result in optimum operating results. The following points can help you with your planning (Fig. B):
► The unit is not suitable for dry installation. The water exits the container via a lateral bypass when no
water jet is produced. It must be guaranteed that the emerging water can return to the point from which
it was taken.
► The water ejected is of a parabolic shape. The jet height and range are determined by the pump
capacity (flow rate) and the set inclination angle of the unit.
► The diagram (Fig. B) shows water jet shapes of the Jumping Jet Rainbow Star resulting from different
inclination angles.
► Please note the water depth required for the unit.
► Please note the specified maximum water level height.
► Place the unit at a wind protected location. Risk of the water jet being broken apart by wind.
► Never guide the water jet beyond the basin rim, as in this case splash water cannot be avoided.
► Do not locate the water jet point of contact too close to the pump (> 1 m).
► In the basin, position the pump such that the jet of the Jumping Jet Rainbow Star will not hit close to
the pump.
► To avoid heavy splash water, we recommend a water depth of at least 300 mm at the point of contact
of the water jet. During operation, the point where the jet hits the water surface could vary, depending
on the degree of clogging of the filter and screen.
► Place the pump at a higher level to prevent drawing in of dirt particles from the bottom of the basin.
This measure increases the cleaning interval of the unit.
► Ensure that the hose length between the Jumping Jet Rainbow Star and the pump does not exceed
2 m.
