Nozzle water demand
Nozzle water demand is how much water a nozzle requires
to achieve the objective. Although there are many types of fountain nozzle each water demand
is differnt. Lets us compare the komet 3-5t and
Schaumsprudler 35-10e

Here they are side by side for comparison |
In order for the komet nozzle shown to have a jet that reaches 50cm it
requires 3.8 litres per minute,@ 0.07 bar pressure. This is called its "water demand" Any less and it
will not be able to have a jet height of 50cm
Similarly our most popular foaming nozzle the
Schaumsprudler 35 10 e requires 55 litres / minute @ 0.14 bar to
achieve a height of 50cm
The same is also true of any other nozzle, (including
ones from the same "range" ) in that each has its own water demand,
regardless of what "pattern" it has.
A typical enquiry we receive is: " I need a pump to deliver 60
litres / hour for my nozzle"
We could supply a pump to do this, but if the pressure
is not high enough then the jet will not reach the required height, so if we are
supplying a pump for a nozzle you have, We also need to know the
following.
The make / model, the water demand, its dimensions,
(including inlet size) how high / wide you require the jet, your budget,
and if possible a picture
By giving us this information we can usually supply the correct
pump for your nozzle.
This is why when you enquire with us, we may ask a lot
of questions, but we will supply the
correct pump for the task.
