Abstract
A water filter assembly is provided. The assembly includes an outer shell and a filter disposed inside the outer shell. The filter has an upstream portion constructed from a first media and a downstream portion constructed from a second media. A fluid flow meter is located downstream of the filter. An electronic processor is electronically connected to the fluid flow meter and is adapted to transmit a wireless signal to a remote electronic device to display flow information from the fluid flow meter.
Claims19
An electronic water filter assembly for removable connection to a water faucet, the assembly comprising:
- a plurality of faucet connectors adapted to be connected to a water faucet;
- an outer shell having an upstream end removably connectable to each of the plurality of faucet connectors;
- a filter disposed inside the outer shell, the filter comprising a generally frusto-conically shaped upstream portion constructed from a first media and a generally cylindrical downstream portion constructed from a second media, different from the first media;
- at least two sensors located downstream of the filter, the at least two sensors comprising at least two of:
- a fluid flow meter;
- a temperature sensor;
- a total suspended solids (“TSS”) sensor;
- and
- a pH sensor;
- an electronic processor electronically connected to each of the at least two sensors;
- and
- a transmitter electronically connected to each of the at least two sensors and adapted to transmit a wireless signal to a remote electronic device to display information from each of the at least two sensors.
