Overall transformation

1 / reconstruction time: October 8, 2015 - April 30, 2016

2 / Introduction: the West Lake music fountain was built in 2003. Due to the high performance frequency, the damage rate is high. The equipment and materials, the software and hardware of the control system of the music fountain are aging. In 2007, 2008 and 2011, the West Lake music fountain has been upgraded, but they are all minor repairs, where there is a problem, repair where.

This transformation is mainly a comprehensive transformation of the fountain control system, such as new gas explosion fountain, matrix type pneumatic water film fountain, arc-shaped variable frequency fountain, servo two-dimensional numerical control fountain, high-power LED lamp, etc., so that the music fountain has more patterns and more advanced technology. Air burst fountains use compressed air to blow the water column into the air. They look more majestic and surging, and they can also hear the sound of air waves. Compared with the previous pump fountains, the water column rhythm is simpler and the water flow speed is faster; the matrix type pneumatic water film fountains and arc-shaped variable frequency fountains add new water-based patterns to the music fountains; the servo two-dimensional numerical control fountains can control the universal swing of the fountain nozzle, which is the most advanced technology at present; the installation of high-power LED lights can be realized through the single point control of each LED light, It realizes the running, flashing and non-polar color changing of the light, and makes the performance effect and artistic appeal of the music fountain richer. The fountain song will also change. The music fountains of West Lake have been changed many times. At present, there are West Lake in the world, waiting for a thousand years, spring of West Lake, broken bridge, Blue Danube, Scarborough market, etc. When the music fountain reopens, the lakeside Management Office will consider changing some new songs, but the classic songs that have always been popular, such as "Liang Zhu", will be retained.
