The purification media is compressibly retained in the porous elastic container. The flow controller is elastically retained in the pocket of the porous elastic container.
Claims20
A pure water system, comprising:
- a tank, a cover, an inlet port, and an outlet port configured to define a reservoir;
- and
- a purification device received in the reservoir so that water can flow into the inlet port, through the purification device, and out of the outlet port along a primary axis of flow, wherein the purification device comprises a porous elastic container, purification media retained in the porous elastic container, and a flow controller configured and arranged within the porous container to stretch a water entry side of the porous elastic container at least 10% from an unstretched state.
A pure water system, comprising:
- a tank, a cover, an inlet port, and an outlet port configured to define a reservoir;
- and
- a purification device received in the reservoir so that water can flow into the inlet port, through the purification device, and out of the outlet port along a primary axis of flow, wherein the purification device comprises a porous container, purification media retained in the porous container, and a flow controller comprising a pivot preventer configured to maintain the flow controller perpendicular to the primary flow axis.
