About Yimu Fount On-tap Water Purifier
Yimu Fount is an on-tap water purifier that tests and filters drinking water. The device is installed directly on a faucet. Water is measured by a monitoring module, then passes through a compound filter made of activated carbon fiber and ion exchange fiber, and is measured again to compare the results. Microfluidic and miniature spectrophotometry sensors record water quality parameters in real time. Four colored LED indicator lights show the current water quality, and a linked application presents changes before and after filtration.
Award Record
With this recognition, Shenzhen Yimu Technology Co., Ltd is a winner of 2 A' Design Awards. All of the awards belong to the 2022 - 2023 edition of the A' Design Award & Competition.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- A home water monitoring device that tests and filters water. It has three significant over its competitors: 1. real-time monitoring of critical water quality parameters using microfluidic and mini-spectrophotometry sensor technology and analysis algorithms; 2. a high-efficiency compound filter using Activated Carbon Fiber and Ion Exchange Fiber; 3. LED indicator lights and an app that allows users to monitor water quality changes before and after filtration.
- Inspiration
- With the increasingly severe water pollution, people pay more and more attention to drinking water safety. However, it is not easy to distinguish the actual filtering effect because of the mixed water purification equipment on the market. So we hope to realize an intelligent water purifier with a smart control system to ensure drinking water's safety and visually present the filtering effect.
- Research
- It includes the world's smallest micro-fluidics and spectral sensors to provide real-time water quality data. The integrated design perfectly combines the monitoring cavity, operation control panel, and display panel of the equipment, which is more convenient for users to operate. There is no need to carry additional equipment accessories during operation, making outdoor detection more convenient.
- Challenge
- The FIRST Device that tests water quality each time you drink and providing filtered water in real-time. A LED indicator lights will designate the testing results and users can download our Ecomo APP to get access to many personalized functions. Ecomo Fount can accurately test for many different water quality parameters.
- Realization and Technology
- - Real-Time Monitoring, Efficient Filtration Has passed the micro-spectral AI monitoring system to dynamically monitor raw water/clean water changes, and the filtering effect is clearly visible. - Monitoring + Filtering Large-scale water quality testing equipment, make it become chip and civilian. A full set of patented monitoring technology that allows ordinary people to detect accurate laboratory-level data at home. - Four Colors, Real-Time Monitoring It can be detected when water is out , and the four color LED lights directly show the current water quality status, providing healthy drinking water for you and your family 24 hours a day.
- Operation and Interaction
- Install the equipment directly to the faucet, water flow into the equipment from the tap and test the water for the first time by the water quality monitoring module, and then flow into the filter element for filtering. The filtered water enters the monitoring module again to compare the filtering effect, so as to ensure that the filtered water meets the reference standard.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in December 2014 in Washington D.C. and finished in May 2016.
- Specifications
- Filter Material : Natural Coconut Shell Activated Carbon / Activated Carbon Fiber / Ion Exchange Fiber Weight: 430g Size : 82 x 117mm Battery Capacity: 1000mAh Total Purified Water Quantity: 50L Purified Water Flow:1L / min
