Abstract

Water treatment and valve control systems and apparatuses, and methods of using the same, are disclosed. In some examples, the apparatuses, systems, and methods include use of a rotary position sensor and one or more rotatable elements configured to, when moving from an initial rotational position to subsequent rotational positions, move one or more element of a valve assembly. In various examples of the apparatuses, systems, and methods, the rotatable element rotates directly from one rotational position to another rotational position. In certain examples, the rotary position sensor measures an electrical resistance value to detect the rotational position of the rotatable element.
