Illustrative system schematics
These maps show functional routes. Pipe and cable size, equipment capacity, complete valves, electrical zoning and implementation details should be completed in the project plan.
The continuous arrow indicates the direction of water or power and the dashed arrow indicates the steering wheel.
8–1. Schematic diagram of water circulation circuit
Conceptual Schematic 8-1 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
This circuit shows the water circulation of the show. The purification circuit can be independent. The location and design of the suction should be compatible with people's access, and level control should determine the pump's work permit.
8–2. Schematic of bypass pump circuit
Conceptual Schematic 8-2 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
The displayed bypass is designed for a specific hydraulic purpose, such as providing the minimum flow required by the pump. Its capacity and logic must be in harmony with the manufacturer's order and curve. This path is not a purification or disinfection bypass.
8–3. Schematic of the purification circuit
Conceptual Schematic 8-3 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
Sensor placement, injection points, and equipment arrangement should be determined by manufacturer's instructions and material compatibility. Material injection must be locked with valid flow. Injection points of incompatible materials should not be implemented as a joint connection without design provisions.
8–4. General schematic of the electrical circuit
Conceptual Schematic 8-4 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
In the implementation plan, PE, combination, differential current equipment according to the case and specifications of separate protection devices should be displayed. Removing these components from the simple form does not mean removing them from the design.
The safety circuit must specify the behavior of each part; For example, the need to stop the show does not necessarily mean to stop all water conservation processes.
8–5. DMX control schematic
Conceptual Schematic 8-5 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
Each branch should be executed with proper cable and termination. Branching must be in accordance with the permitted structure of the network and equipment. If RDM is used, the controller, splitter, and routing equipment must be compatible.
Equipment code | Branch or Universe | Start Address | Number of channels | The function of channels |
|---|---|---|---|---|
…… | …… | …… | …… | …… |
…… | …… | …… | …… | …… |
Protocol reference: ANSI E1.11-2024 [448] and ANSI E1.20-2025 [449] .
8–6. Schematic of underwater lights
Conceptual Schematic 8-6 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
This figure shows the parallel connection of equipment compatible with such a structure. A lamp with a constant current driver or dedicated system must be connected according to the manufacturer's circuit.
Voltage, type of current, cable length, voltage drop, immersion conditions and the possibility of working out of water should be determined from the characteristics of the lamp. The requirements for lamps for this application are presented in IEC 60598-2-18 [450].
8–7. Schematic of an example of an interactive dry floor fountain
Conceptual Schematic 7–8 | Implementation details should be completed according to the project design
This design is a two-tank conceptual arrangement. The capacity of tanks and treatment must be coordinated with the maximum return flow, display and required storage.
Additional details include containment of contaminated runoff, permitted discharge, overflow, suction protection, washdown access, and stop logic in case of treatment or disinfection failure. Hydraulic circulation alone does not guarantee the suitability of water for public contact.
