Hi Trevor,
I'd say that the immersion depth for the regular wave should be around half of the boardthickness. This way there is enough static pressure, without flooding over the board-edges.
Immersion depth of a chipwave is more difficult (to define) because of the turbulence, but you could adjust it to the maximum height that doesn't result in solderballs. But for a well designed board you should put it a little lower.
I believe there's some useful wavesoldering setup information on Bob Willis's site (www.bobwillis.co.uk).

Kind regards,

A quick question for you wave solder experts out there.
 Where is a good place to start in regards to immersion depth for the chip
wave and the regular solder wave?
Thanks in advance
