    Patent number: 6177018
    Abstract: Dosing mechanism to feed germicide or disinfectant into a water supplied supply device in order to provide disinfected water for consumers. Said dosing mechanism comprises a disinfectant storage tank (12), pathway for water flow (20) leading to at least one junction point (30), a remote-controlled feeder (22) enabling germicide to be added, a control device (52) working together with a flow metro which detects flow volume of water supplied and transmitting it as a signal to the control device (52) which actuates the feeder (22) according to a predefinable concentration of germicide in water. The storage tank (12) is pressurized with compressed air and the feeder is designed as a proportional valve (22) which can be actuated by the control device.
