Air filtering assemblies described herein include one or more venturi elements that include extended pulse outlets. The pulse outlets may, in one or more embodiments, include two regions between the throat of the venturi element and the distal end of the pulse outlet that diverge at different rates. In one or more embodiments, the venturi elements may include openings at the distal ends of their pulse outlets that have non-circular cross-sectional shapes. In one or more embodiments, the non-circular cross-sectional shapes of the openings at the distal ends of the pulse outlets of the venturi elements may be selected to match non-circular openings in the filter elements attached to the pulse outlets of the venturi elements.
