AI Technical Summary
Water purification systems in motorhomes and campervans face space constraints, making it difficult to integrate conventional water filters with plumbing systems.
A compact water filter unit combining a UV-C LED disinfection unit and an activated carbon filter with pore size less than 0.5 µm is mounted on a water pressure pump using clamps, integrating the filter directly with the pump outlet.
Provides effective water purification in confined spaces by ensuring efficient filtration and disinfection directly at the source, enhancing water quality without the need for extensive plumbing modifications.

Abstract
Description
[0001] Water purification filters are well-known and are usually integrated into the plumbing system after water pressure pumps. In motorhomes and campervans, this is often not possible due to space constraints.
[0002] The object of the invention is the assembly of a water filter unit, consisting of a UV-C LED disinfection unit and an activated carbon filter or a filter with a pore size of less than 0.5 µm and an activated carbon filter, on or attached to a water pressure pump.
[0003] According to the invention, a water filter unit is mounted on or to a water pressure pump (3) using clamps (4) and the pump outlet (5) is connected to the inlet of the water filter unit (6).
[0004] The water filter unit according to the invention is shown in the drawing. Fig. Figure 1 shows the water filter unit in front view. Fig. Figure 2 shows the water filter unit in side view. Fig.Figure 3 shows the water filter unit from above.
Claims
[1] Water filter unit, characterized by , that a water filter unit is mounted on or attached to a water pressure pump (3) with clamps (4), the filter unit consists of a UV-C LED disinfection unit (1) and an activated carbon filter (2) or of a filter (1) with a pore size of less than 0.5 µm and an activated carbon filter (2). [2] UV-C LED disinfection unit (1) according to claim 1, characterized by , that the LEDs produce light with a wavelength of 100 - 280 nm. [3] Water filter unit according to claim 1, characterized by , that a T-connector (7) is mounted at the pump outlet (5).
