Abstract:
The invention relates to a filtration system and method for carrying out a process for the filtration of fluids, comprising at least one filtration device with at least one filtration element comprising readable data and a check and/or test apparatus to which the filtration device may be connected, by means of data and testing means lines. The check and/or testing device is connected to a process controller, by data exchange means, for regulation and control of the filtration process and the process controller is connected to a filtration databank, by means of data exchange means, which comprises data sets for at least one filter element and/or for each filtration device and/or for the filtration process. The invention further relates to a computer programme product for carrying out a filtration process on fluids whereby programme components may be called up from a programme memory which support the carrying out of the filtration process.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention comprise reverse osmosis filters and systems comprising embedded radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for storing and retrieving data. The RFID tags can be preferably embedded under a filtration device's protective outer shell. Information can be easily stored onto and retrieved from the embedded RFID tags. The ability to easily store and retrieve data from the embedded RFID devices facilitates the creation of loading maps, monitoring, addition, and replacement of fluid filtration devices.
Abstract:
A filter core controller device of a water filter device comprises a chip in a filter core of the water filter device; the filter core having an erasable chip; codes and accumulating operation time period being recorded in the chip; a control unit for reading the cord in the chip so as to determining whether the filter core is a set one and reading the accumulating operation time period for determining whether the filter core is overdue and updating the accumulating operation time period in the chip. The signals of the chip and the signals of the control device are transmitted wirelessly or by wires.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for monitoring service-intensive replaceable parts in an assembly in which information regarding a replaceable part (1), such as specifications, physical dimensions, physical properties, functions and/or other data for the replaceable part, is stored on a suitable memory component (5) in and/or on the replaceable part (1). The stored data is read with a reading device at a predetermined time or at predetermined time intervals and transmitted to an evaluation unit. The read data can be compared in the evaluation unit with preset data and, after evaluating the results of the comparison of the data, an appropriate change in the replaceable part or in the operation of the assembly may or may not be carried out.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a water purification system for a smart building that allows users to monitor a water pipe and a water quality condition and take disaster prevention response. The water purification system includes a water pipe scaler connected to the water pipe of the building and to scale an internal condition of the water pipe, a water pipe filtration device to filter a water supplied to the water pipe, a first sensor to measure a quality of the water flowing in the water pipe, a second sensor installed at the building or a ground of the building to measure a condition of the building or the ground, and a water supply control device to monitor the water quality and the condition of the building or the ground based on sensing data of the first sensor and the second sensor.
Abstract:
A water filter for a refrigerator appliance including a transmitter power coil. The water filter includes a body forming a liquid receiving space; a filter material provided within the receiving space to filter water therethrough; a first antenna attached to the body, the first antenna facilitating a wireless communication between the refrigerator appliance and the water filter; a power harvesting circuit attached to the body, the power harvesting circuit being operably connected with the first antenna; and one or more electronic components operably coupled to the power harvesting circuit, wherein the antenna wirelessly receives a first electromagnetic field from the transmitter power coil to provide power to the one or more electronic components via the power harvesting circuit.
Abstract:
A modular filtration platform having at least one manifold head and at least one respective filter cartridge assembly. Each manifold head is connected to one another to establish a water flow in a series or parallel manner. Each filter cartridge assembly is releasably secured from rotation relative to the manifold head by a locking mechanism. An aperture on the filter cartridge assembly annular collar mates with a protruding resilient extension on either the manifold head or support bracket. Alternatively, an aperture on the filter cartridge assembly annular collar and an aperture on the manifold head annular collar mate with a protruding member from a locking ring extending through both apertures. An integrated sensor package may be integrated with the system for true managed water visible/audible indications and Wi-Fi interface to facilitate virtually instantaneous response times for filtration needs.
Abstract:
A filter monitor system (“FMS”) module is installed on the engine/vehicle and is connected to the filter systems, sensors and devices to monitor various performance parameters. The module also connects to the engine control module (“ECM”) and draws parameters from the ECM. The FMS module is capable of interfacing with various output devices such as a smartphone application, a display monitor, an OEM telematics system or a service technician's tool on a computer. The FMS module consists of hardware and software algorithms which constantly monitor filter systems and provide information to the end-user. FMS module provides necessary inputs and outputs for electronic sensors and devices.

Abstract:
A fuel filter pre-fill detection system includes a monitoring mechanism structured to monitor a fluid property of a fuel system indicative of priming of the fuel system. A control mechanism is coupled with and structured to received data from the monitoring mechanism, and outputs a signal responsive a time to prime the fuel system that is indicative of a filter pre-fill state.
