2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of water purifier generally used supplies purified water from which harmful carcinogens contained in source water such as tap water have been removed. It is roughly classified into a natural filtration type, a direct coupling type, an ion exchange resin type and a reverse osmosis type. Among the above-mentioned water purification methods, the reverse osmosis pressure method is a method of performing a water purification by applying a predetermined pressure to the source water and passing it through an artificial osmosis membrane (reverse osmosis membrane). Since it can separate and remove heavy metals, bacteria, carcinogens, etc. that exist, and can supply clean water that has passed only pure water and dissolved oxygen, it is used for cutting-edge scientific industries and for the cleaning of ultra-precision electronic parts or medical applications. Recently, it has been widely used in household water purifiers for drinking water.

By the way, in such a conventional water level sensing circuit, the voltage applied to the water level sensor 16 is direct current, and the output of the water level sensor 16 is divided by the voltage dividing resistor R1. Since the potential of the voltage C point is lower than the potential of the point a of the sensing electrode 16a of the water level sensor 16,
A voltage difference is generated across the water level sensor 16 to cause electrolysis. Therefore, after a long time has passed, the water level sensor 16 is corroded and the water level of the water purification tank 9 cannot be sensed.
There was a problem to be solved such as overflow of the water purification tank 9 and overflow.
