The light fountain in Kherson is a powerful hydraulic structure. The fountain, the water jets of which reach a height of 4 meters, form many small rainbows in sunlight. At night, the backlight will be turned on: the fountain is equipped with 84 LED lamps KH-SC03-810-RGB (42 pieces in each bowl) of different colors.
The backlighting of fountains and reservoirs is a responsible and complex matter. As you know, water and electricity are not compatible. For wiring, it is necessary to use special hydraulic couplings, and underwater lamps should be selected with a dust and moisture protection rating of IP68. If all these requirements are met during design and installation, the fountain will delight you for many years. When selecting equipment for this facility, the contractors chose equipment with an IP65 moisture protection class, while the power cable was a PVS wire not intended for underwater installation, and fluid couplings were not used. The connections were insulated underwater using electrical tape, which will inevitably lead to moisture penetration into the cable and the lamps themselves. We recommend that you choose equipment intended for underwater installation with an IP68 moisture protection class, such as KH-DW03-WG31 lamps or other DW series. In single-body lamps, it is mandatory to use a wire for underwater installation, as well as the use of fluid couplings.
The design project and installation were developed and carried out by the VIVA company. Kherson
