UNIVERSAL INTERFACE CONNECTION SYSTEM AND FLOW DIRECTING COUPLING SYSTEM AND MANIFOLD USING SAME

摘要

A universal interface connection system may be used to interconnect manifolds, valves, and other components in a water treatment system. A modular flow directing coupling system may be formed by the manifolds and used to direct a flow of water through water treatment devices in the water treatment system. Each of the manifolds may include one or more universal interface connection portions configured to connect with universal interface connection portions on other manifolds or to connect with other components. The universal interface connection portions may include a pair of spaced flanges configured to be engaged by a clip for holding the components together.
