Abstract

The water treatment system, particularly pre-filtration unit of the water treatment system, comprising at least one chlorine sensor device, is characterized in that the water treatment system contains a salt-water treatment device which is connected to the chlorine sensor device, an electrolysis cell being disposed in the associated line, and thereafter a pump and a release valve.

Claims (14)

1. A water treatment system, particularly pre-filtration unit of the water treatment system, comprising at least one chlorine sensor device, wherein the water treatment system contains a salt-water treatment device which is connected to the chlorine sensor device, an electrolysis cell being disposed in the associated line, and thereafter a pump and a release valve, wherein a softener device which has connected thereto the salt water treatment device via a salt water line, the electrolysis cell being disposed in the salt water line and a chlorine test line branching off between the electrolysis cell and the softening device, which leads to the at least one chlorine sensor device.

2. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein a water line in which an adjustable throttle is disposed leads to the pump.

3. The water treatment system according to claim 2 , wherein the pump is a venturi pump.

4. The water treatment system according to claim 2 , wherein the chlorine-containing solution is metered by means of the pump from the chlorine test line into the water line.

5. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the chlorine sensor device comprises a sensor chamber and a chlorine sensor.

6. The water treatment system according to claim 5 , wherein the chlorine sensor is connected to an electronic evaluation unit.

7. The water treatment system according to claim 5 , wherein the release valve is positioned upstream of the sensor chamber, and that the sensor chamber has an outlet.

8. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the salt treatment device comprises a salt water container which is arranged on a weighing device.

9. The water treatment system according to claim 1 wherein the softening device is a softener which is filled with strongly acidic cation-containing resin.

10. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the magnitude of the electrical power of the electrolysis cell is adjustable by a control device.

11. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein a dechlorination device is disposed in the water line, the outputs of which are connected via lines and switching valves to the chlorine sensor device.

12. The water treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the water treatment system is a reverse osmosis system.

13. A water treatment system, particularly pre-filtration unit of the water treatment system, comprising at least one chlorine sensor device, wherein the water treatment system contains a salt-water treatment device which is connected to the chlorine sensor device, an electrolysis cell being disposed in the associated line, and thereafter a pump and a release valve, wherein a water line in which an adjustable throttle is disposed leads to the pump, and wherein the pump is a venturi pump.

14. A water treatment system, particularly pre-filtration unit of the water treatment system, comprising at least one chlorine sensor device, wherein the water treatment system contains a salt-water treatment device which is connected to the chlorine sensor device, an electrolysis cell being disposed in the associated line, and thereafter a pump and a release valve, wherein a dechlorination device is disposed in the water line, the outputs of which are connected via lines and switching valves to the chlorine sensor device.
