Water ATM

A Water ATM Machine is a self-service, automated unit that allows you to conveniently access safe and purified drinking water available 24 hours a day, seven days per week. Typically, customers pay to access water via a coin mechanism or by digital payment through a mobile wallet or smart card so they may easily pour water into a container. The machine features a multi-stage filtration system that typically relies on Reverse Osmosis (RO), activated carbon filters, and UV sterilization to effectively remove impurities, bacteria, viruses, and chemicals from the water to meet health requirements established by the World Health Organization (WHO), IS:10500 etc. Water ATM Machines have simple installation requirements (water supply, power source, and run-off) and low plumbing and wiring requirements. They consume low power and in some cases, are battery-backed, bringing an added convenience in power outage situations. Customer engaged features include an LED or LCD to report water volume, coins put into the machine and machine status, as well as other programmable features (water dispensing volumes and price of water). Some advanced machine systems are managed remotely, equipped with water level alerts, and tamper-proof coin validations. A Water ATM Machine is suited for high use situations in public areas, i.e., schools, hospitals, railway stations, community parks, and commercial complexes. It is an affordable, reliable, and convenient tool to access clean drinking water and helpful in areas where access to clean, safe drinking water is lacking.
