Abstract:
An improved water filter assembly for use with an evaporative cooler pump, the filter comprising a cylindrical filter wall, a closed base and a neoprene curtain that covers the top but opens to receive the pump impeller.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus and method for filtering fluids with a compressible filter media within at least a portion of a housing inwardly compressible.
Abstract:
An expansible, compressed foam is used as a filter medium and captured particulates are released from the foam by expanding the foam to open its pores. Micro-organisms such as Cryptosporidium or Giardia cysts may be trapped and recovered at high eficiency in a small volume of wash liquid easing further analysis. A foam filter element comprises thirty discs (36) of retriculated foam compressed between end plates (28, 30) to about one tenth of their original thickness.
Abstract:
A screen device includes a foam body having a passageway that extends longitudinally through the foam body, the foam body has an open cell structure such that at least two surfaces of the foam body are in fluidic communication with one another through the foam body.
Abstract:
A filter (2) for filtering engine oil, which filter (2) comprises a body (4) an inlet (6) for engine oil passing into the body (4), an outlet (8) for the engine oil passing out of the body (4), a foam material (10) in the body (4) for filtering the engine oil and removing water in the engine oil, magnet means (15) in the body (4) for attracting and retaining particles of magnetically-attracted material in the engine oil, and activated carbon (11) in the body (4) for removing mutagens from the engine oil.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a filter unit, comprising at least one supply channel for supplying a liquid to be filtered; at least one discharge channel for discharging the filtered liquid; and at least one filter body which is designed for filtering the liquid to be filtered; at least sections of the at least one supply and/or discharge channel being formed in the at least one filter body; and an end of the at least one supply and/or discharge channel being closed in a liquid-tight manner. The present invention further relates to a filter device containing said filter unit and to a filter system containing said filter unit.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus (10) and method for filtering fluids with a compressible filter media within at least a portion of a housing (25) inwardly compressible.
Abstract:
A device and system for purifying a fluid is provided. The system includes a tank having an interior space and a media container disposed within the interior space. A valve is provided that cooperates with an element within the interior, the valve being movable between an open and a closed position. The valve being biased to the open position when the element is not positioned within the interior space, wherein the interior space is fluidly coupled to the atmosphere in the open position. The valve further being configured to move to a closed position when the element is positioned within the interior space.
Abstract:
A filtration system interconnection structure having a filter manifold including a sump housing and a first correlated magnet located on or connected to a portion of the manifold, and a filter cartridge including a filter media, first and second end caps sealed to the filter media, and a second, paired correlated magnet located on or connected to the filter cartridge housing body. The first and second correlated magnets are interconnected via magnetic communication upon insertion of the filter cartridge into the sump housing, and upon movement of the filter cartridge into an alignment position, the correlated magnet located on or connected to the manifold is permitted to translate as a result of the magnetic communication. The polarity profiles of the paired correlated magnets are aligned such that a repulsion force is created when the filter cartridge is inserted within the manifold sump housing.
