[0035] The principle behind this design is that purified water conductivity measurement is a method for detecting the concentration of dissolved ions in water. Conductivity is a measure of a substance's ability to conduct electricity, and its unit is Siemens (S / m). In purified water, the conductivity is very low, typically between 0.1 and 1.0 μS / cm. The level of conductivity is related to the concentration and type of ions in the water. Therefore, by measuring the conductivity of purified water, the purity of the water can be determined, and the concentration and type of dissolved ions in the water can be determined.

[0036] When this purified water distribution system is in operation, it supplies purified water to the water point through the water outlet component 2 and allows the purified water to flow back from the water point through the water return component 3. The conductivity of the purified water in the water return pipeline 301 is detected by the conductivity meter 304. When the conductivity exceeds the set value range, the system controls the opening and closing of the water return valve 303 and the drain valve 402 to close the water return pipeline 301 and open the drain pipeline 401, thereby achieving the function of discharging purified water that does not meet the purity requirements.
