Abstract: The present invention relates to a water purification device designed to provide safe and potable water by efficiently removing physical, chemical, and biological contaminants. The system integrates a multi-stage purification process, including pre-filtration to remove sediments, activated carbon filtration for chemical and odor removal, and reverse osmosis or ultrafiltration for dissolved solids and heavy metal elimination. Post-filtration, water is exposed to ultraviolet (UV-C) sterilization to deactivate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. The device incorporates a total dissolved solids (TDS) sensor and flow sensor to continuously monitor water quality and system performance. A microcontroller-based control unit receives sensor inputs and regulates valves, pumps, and the UV lamp, ensuring optimal purification while alerting users to any anomalies. The compact design allows for continuous, automated operation, providing safe, high-quality drinking water suitable for domestic and commercial applications. This invention offers enhanced efficiency, real-time monitoring, and reliability in water purification
