US Patent:

50601679, Oct 22, 1991

Filed:

Jun 26, 1989

Appl. No.:

7/371546

Inventors:

James E. Ticcioni - Mequon WI
Robert W. Colburn - Green Bay WI
Richard V. D. Baxter - Neenah WI

Assignee:

Bruner Corporation - Milwaukee WI

International Classification:

G06F 1546

US Classification:

364509

Abstract:

The Electronic Programmable Water Treatment Controller provides an integrated initiator and sequencer for controlling regeneration of water softening and filtering systems. The controller initiates the regeneration sequence or, in the alternative, an alarm based on a programmable prediction time total flow through the water treatment device or combinations of the foregoing. The sequence of regeneration is controlled in response to selected parameters programmable by the user for valve actuation and timing. Multiple water treatment systems may be controlled in alternating, parallel, or progressive control schemes through communication between controllers, attached to each system, which employ the present invention.

Abstract:

The Electronic Programmable Water Treatment Controller provides an integrated initiator and sequencer for controlling regeneration of water softening and filtering systems. The controller or associated external device(s) initiates the regeneration sequence or, in the alternative, an alarm based on a programmable prediction time, total volume through the water treatment device or combinations of the foregoing. The sequence of regeneration is controlled in response to selected parameters programmable by the user for valve actuation and timing. Multiple water treatment systems may be controlled in alternating, parallel, or progressive control schemes through communication between controllers, attached to each system, which employ the present invention.
