Abstract:
A system for providing treated water includes a water treatment unit including an inlet water quality probe, a worker bed, a probe to measure a parameter of water from the worker bed, a polisher bed connected downstream from the worker bed and having a probe to measure a parameter of water from the polisher bed, and a flow meter upstream of the worker bed or downstream of the polisher bed. A controller in communication with the flow meter and the probes is configured to receive data from same. A remote server in communication with the local water treatment unit is configured to receive data from the local water treatment unit. The controller or the server may determine a cumulative flow total, a billing cycle flow total, a current exchange flow total, a contaminant load, or a remaining capacity of the water treatment unit.

Claim (Index 34):
A system for providing treated water, the system comprising:\n a local water treatment unit including:\n an inlet water quality probe disposed to measure at least one inlet water parameter of feedwater to be treated, the inlet water quality probe including a conductivity sensor and a temperature sensor configured to provide data utilized to apply an offset or calibration to data output from the conductivity sensor to reduce or eliminate an effect of temperature on the conductivity sensor readings, \n a worker bed having ion exchange media contained therein, and disposed to receive the feedwater to be treated, \n a worker probe disposed to measure at least one worker water parameter of water from the worker bed, the worker probe including a worker conductivity sensor and a worker temperature sensor configured to provide data utilized to apply an offset or calibration to data output from the worker conductivity sensor to reduce or eliminate an effect of temperature on the worker conductivity sensor readings, \n a polisher bed having ion exchange media contained therein, and fluidly connected downstream from the worker bed, \n a polisher probe disposed to measure at least one polisher water parameter of water from the polisher bed, the polisher probe including a polisher conductivity sensor and a polisher temperature sensor configured to provide data utilized to apply an offset or calibration to data output from the polisher conductivity sensor to reduce or eliminate an effect of temperature on the polisher conductivity sensor readings, \n a flow meter positioned at least one of upstream of the worker bed and downstream of the polisher bed and configured to measure flow data of water introduced into the local water treatment unit, and \n a controller in communication with the flow meter, the inlet water quality probe, the worker probe, and the polisher probe, the controller configured to receive the flow data from the flow meter, the at least one measured inlet water parameter from the inlet water quality probe, the at least one worker water parameter from the worker probe, and the at least one polisher water parameter from the polisher probe; and \n a server remote from and in communication with the local water treatment unit, the server configured to receive from the local water treatment unit, at least one of the flow data, the at least one measured inlet water parameter, the at least one worker water parameter, and the at least one polisher water parameter, at least one of the controller and the server further configured to:\n determine a billing cycle flow total based on the flow data during a billing cycle through the local water treatment unit; \n calculate a difference between the billing cycle flow total and a baseline volume of treated water expected to be provided during the billing cycle; and \n determine a fee adjustment for providing the treated water based on the calculated difference between the billing cycle flow total and the baseline volume of treated water expected to be provided.
