Abstract

A redundant array pumping system (10) and associated control and diagnostics system (300) is provided for water rides (90) for ensuring continuous and non-disruptive supply of water. The pumping system (10) incorporates a redundant pump and filter array (12) in conjunction with a nozzle system (N1-N11) for injecting water onto a ride surface (70). The nozzle system may incorporate a plurality of redundant or quasi-redundant nozzles or jets (J1-J11). The hydraulic pumping system (10) can include many levels of redundancy as applied to its various components, such as pumps (P1-P12), filters (F1-F12) and nozzles (N1-N11). Additionally, the system can be equipped with a plurality of pressure and flow sensors (PS, FS) for monitoring and controlling the performance of the pumps (P1-P12), filters (F1-F12) and nozzles (N1-N11) of the pumping system (10).
