SOLID CHEMICAL PRODUCT DILUTION CONTROL
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- dispensing a target amount of a diluent into a container; and
applying at least some of the diluent from the container to a solid chemical product and directing the resulting use solution back into the container until an amount of the use solution in the container satisfies a requested amount.

Abstract
A solid chemical product is dispensed to prepare a requested amount of a use solution having a requested concentration of the chemical product. In some examples, a target amount of a diluent and a target amount of the chemical product required to prepare the requested use solution are determined. The target amount of the diluent is dispensed into a container. At least some of the diluent in the container is applied to the solid chemical product to create a resultant use solution, which is directed back into the container. The diluent from the container is applied to the chemical product until the amount of the use solution in the container satisfies the requested amount. In some examples, the target amount of the diluent and the target amount of the chemical product are measured by weight.

9. A system comprising:
-
a container into which a target amount of a diluent required to prepare a requested amount of a use solution is dispensed; a weighing device positioned to obtain container weight information concerning a weight of the container and any contents thereof; and a controller that receives a dispense request specifying a requested volume of the use solution to be prepared and a requested concentration of the chemical product in the use solution, determines a target weight of the diluent required to prepare the requested use solution, determines a target weight of the chemical product to be dispensed required to prepare the requested use solution, and manages application of the diluent onto the solid chemical product until an amount of the use solution in the container satisfies the requested amount based on the container weight information. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
