초록 ▼

A method for fluid treatment that provides variable or alternative regeneration cycles within the same fluid treatment device. The duration of all stages of the regeneration cycle can be adjusted depending upon the amount of fluid treated so that regenerant resources such as water are not underutilized and waste is not discharged unnecessarily into the environment. Additionally or alternatively, a regeneration sequence may include a fluid release sequence in which a fluid is released from a water treatment tank by successive linear movement of a piston in a valve assembly.

1. A method for treating water, said method comprising: providing a water treatment device having a programmable controller coupled to a valve assembly which controls fluid flow between a plurality of ports, the controller configured to manage a first regeneration sequence followed by a second regeneration sequence, each of the first and second regeneration sequences comprising one or more correlative regeneration cycles, wherein the controller has been programmed with:a predetermined capacity of the treatment device,a first predetermined duration for each regeneration cycle of the first regeneration sequence, anda trigger limit of at least one characteristic of the water treatment device to trigger a regeneration sequence;prior to an initiation of the second regeneration sequence, measuring a volume of water passed through the water treatment device since the completion of a prior regeneration sequence;initiating with the controller the first regeneration sequence;after the first regeneration sequence, programming the controller with a second predetermined duration for at least one correlative regeneration cycle of the second regeneration sequence, the second predetermined duration being substantially equivalent to the first predetermined duration of the correlative regeneration cycle of die first regeneration sequence multiplied by the measured volume of water divided by the predetermined capacity of the treatment device; andduring at least one of the first regeneration sequence and second regeneration sequence, moving a piston in the valve assembly linearly through a plurality of successive steps, a distance of about 0.001 inches to about 0.005 inches. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the first regeneration sequence has at least one cycle selected from the group consisting of: backwash, down brine, up brine, rinse, rapid rinse and brine tank fill. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the second regeneration sequence occurs at a predetermined time of day. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the second regeneration sequence occurs during a time period of minimal water use. 5. The method of claim 1 further including the step of, with the controller, automatically computing an average amount of water treated on a predetermined day, computing the remaining capacity of the device by subtracting the measured volume of water passed through the water treatment device since the completion of the first regeneration sequence, comparing the remaining capacity with the average amount of water treated on the predetermined day and initiating the second regeneration sequence if the amount of water treated on the predetermined day exceeds the remaining capacity. 6. The method o f claim 1, wherein the second regeneration sequence has more regeneration cycles than the first regeneration sequence. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the second regeneration sequence has fewer regeneration cycles than the first regeneration sequence. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of pausing the linear movement of the piston between two of the successive steps for predetermined period of time.
