A direct water purifier includes a first filter for filtering water introduced through a first flow path; a second filter for receiving the water supplied from the first filter through a second flow path and filtering the same; a first valve disposed in the second flow path to control water flow; a pump disposed in the second flow path to supply water having a predetermined hydraulic pressure or higher to the second filter; a third filter for receiving the water supplied from the second filter through a third flow path and filtering the same; a heating part for receiving the water supplied from the third filter and heating the same to a predetermined temperature; and a flushing valve disposed in a flushing flow path through which concentrated water is discharged from the second filter, wherein the flushing valve is opened during operation of the heating part.

Direct water purifier

An electrodeionization filter includes: a housing having a water inlet and a water outlet; a first electrode installed inside the housing in a spiral shape; a second electrode installed inside the housing in a spiral shape so as to be spaced apart from the first electrode; and an ion exchange module installed between the first electrode and the second electrode for adsorbing or desorbing ionic substances contained in water introduced by an application of electricity. At least one of the first electrode and the second electrode has a structure in which a center portion thereof is denser than a peripheral region thereof. Accordingly, the lifespan of the electrodes of the electrodeionization filter can be increased, and the assembly of the electrodes and related parts can be easily facilitated.

Electrodeionization filter

Provided is a water purifier comprising: a filter unit filtering water supplied from a water source, including a reverse osmosis filter; a discharge unit discharging water filtered by the filter unit externally; a flushing portion connected to the reverse osmosis filter; and a controller configured to flow water filtered by the reverse osmosis filter to the flushing portion, and to flush the reverse osmosis filter.

Water purifier and control method for water purifier

Provided is a water purifier that includes a filtering unit for producing purified water by filtering influent water; a TDS measuring unit for measuring the total dissolved solids (TDS) in the water flowing into the filtering unit; a purified water passage through which the purified water is discharged; a concentrated water passage through which concentrated water, filtered by the filtering unit, is discharged; a concentrated water flow control valve for controlling the flow rate of the concentrated water discharged through the concentrated water passage; and a control unit for adjusting the degree of opening and closing of the concentrated water control valve, on the basis of the TDS and the pressure of the water flowing into the filtering unit.

Water purifier and flow rate control method therefor

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a control method for a water purifier comprises the steps of: filtering inflowing water so as to generate purified water; extracting the generated purified water; measuring the flow rate of the purified water extracted per unit time; flushing a filter part by using purified water generated in the filter part, when the extraction of the purified water is complete; and draining the flushed water to the outside through a residential water outlet of the filter part, wherein, in the purified water generation step, discharging of residential water generated in the purified water generation step is blocked according to the accumulated flow rate during a one-time extraction of the purified water, calculated on the basis of the flow rate of the purified water.

A water purifier according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a filtering unit for producing purified water by filtering influent water; a TDS measuring unit for measuring the total dissolved solids (TDS) in the water flowing into the filtering unit; a purified water passage through which the purified water is discharged; a concentrated water passage through which concentrated water, filtered by the filtering unit, is discharged; a concentrated water flow control valve for controlling the flow rate of the concentrated water discharged through the concentrated water passage; and a control unit for adjusting the degree of opening and closing of the concentrated water control valve, on the basis of the TDS and the pressure of the water flowing into the filtering unit.
