ABSTRACT:
The present invention relating to a device for regulating water flow in a water filter includes a valve base with six passages, a valve disc with two arcuate chambers rotatably disposed on the base in which the arcuate chambers may be arranged to communicate two pairs of the two adjacent of six passages of the base when the valve disc is turned to a predetermined position. The invention further includes a water inlet conduit adapted to be connected to a pump, an upper venting conduit for discharging water to a filter medium, a wash water outlet conduit, a clean water outlet conduit and a lower venting conduit which are communicated with the first, second, third, fifth and the sixth passages whereby the direction of water flow can be controlled by turning the valve disc to three predetermined positions. In this way, the clean water resulting from the filter process flow out from the clean water outlet conduit and the wash water resulting from both backwash process and filter process flow out from the wash water outlet conduit, forming a convenient arrangement in practical use.
