Abstract:
A filter for filtering fluids, in particular gas in petrochemical plants, has: a tubular cartridge which extends along a first axis, is designed to filter a fluid, and has a first and second annular end; a casing, which is connectable to a conduit of a petrochemical plant, houses the tubular cartridge, and has a first and second end support; and an axial compensating ring located between the tubular cartridge and the first or second end support.
Abstract:
Fluid flow surge protection is provided for a filter by increasing upstream plenum fluid volume. In one embodiment, an accumulator or transfer mechanism transfers or trades downstream plenum fluid volume to or for upstream plenum fluid volume.
Abstract:
A filter assembly for fuel is disclosed. The assembly includes a housing and a filter element located in the housing and held in place by a spring. In the space between the inner wall of the housing and the base of the filter element a compressibly resilient element is located which absorbs hydraulic pulses, the filter assembly is subjected to.
Abstract:
A filter element (10) suitable for installation in a liquid filter for cleaning a freeze-endangered liquid; the liquid filter having a housing (37), composed of a housing pot (38), a housing cover (39), and a filter element (10) situated in the housing pot (38), with the housing cover (39) screwed onto the housing pot (38) in a sealed manner. The filter element (10) has a first end disk (11); a second end disk (12), and a filter medium (13) interposed between the end disks (11, 12). The end disks (11, 12) are mutually connected by a supporting element (30), which prevents radial relative movements between the end disks (11, 12). In the axial direction, the supporting element (30) has snap hooks (25) which connect the first end disk (11) undetachably to the second end disk (12). As a result of this connection, the second end disk (12) can be reliably removed from the housing pot (38) by pulling on the first end disk (11).

Abstract:
A ring filter (1) for filtration of hydraulic fluid has a filter section (2) and frame elements (3). The filter section (2) includes a filter screen (6) and a second segment (5) that is impermeable to hydraulic fluid. Both the frame elements (3) and also the second segment (5) are formed of an expandable material.
Abstract:
A freeze resistant filter cartridge assembly and methods for fabrication include a filter cartridge including a filter housing and a filter media and having at least one component selected from a list of components consisting of: the filter housing being formed of an increased elasticity polyolefin polymer having elongation and glass transition properties that allow for stretching of the housing during a freezing event rather than rupturing; a sleeve having a volume of air entrapped therein within and being disposed in the interior of the filter cartridge; and the filter housing formed of a conventional polyolefin having a wall thickness great enough to resist freeze induced expansion stresses. A disassemble cartridge filter includes a filter cap, a filter housing and a filter element. The filter cap and filter housing are rotatably attached wherein cap and housing engagement members prevent rotatable disengagement of the filer cap and filter housing.
Abstract:
A radial flow cartridge, especially for use with an ion exchange resin, includes inner and outer tubular cages, and a tubular knitted liner extending the length of the cartridge between the inner and outer cages and spaced apart from the outer cage. The resin medium fills the space between the liner and the inner cage. During use, the medium absorbs fluid and expands, stretching the knit liner radially and, thereby filling the space between the liner and the outer cage.

Abstract:
A filter unit for liquids undergoing freezing for a metering unit of an exhaust gas treatment unit has a housing having an outer member and a lid member. At least one filter insert is arranged in the housing. An elastically deformable casing part is provided that surrounds at least partially the filter insert. The elastically deformable casing part is a part of the lid member or of the outer member of the housing and is made of a thermoplastic synthetic material. When the liquid undergoes freezing and thawing in the filter unit, the elastically deformable casing part can compensate the volume changes caused by freezing and thawing.
