Abstract:
A multi-stage, modular water filter apparatus having at least first and second filter housings engageable with one and other, and each being engageable with a water inlet member, a water outlet member and a fluid filter cartridge for removing undesired components in a water supply.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method of removing impurities from the effluent of an EDM process wherein the improvement comprises steps of: providing a filter apparatus; providing the effluent from an EDM process to said apparatus; filtering impurities from the effluent thereby forming a filtrate; removing said apparatus from said effluent; and back flushing said apparatus with said filtrate, said back flushing conducted at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure, thereby removing the impurities from said apparatus.
Abstract:
A filter device is disclosed, comprising two compartments within a housing. The first compartment includes a filter element, of the screen or the disc types, with communication to the filtered fluid outlet of the housing. A controllable valve communicates the first compartment with the inlet of the housing across the second compartment. A drain valve connects the first compartment with outside the housing. For flushing the filter element by reverse-flow, the first valve is closed and the flushing fluid drains through the drain valve. In a further embodiment two or more filter elements and associated compartments and valves are installed, in parallel, within the same housing, so that by stopping the filtering operation of one of the filter elements, it becomes flushed with the product, filtered fluid of the other element. The filter elements are preferably of the disc-type, and provided with a hydraulic piston and cylinder assembly for compacting and releasing the discs during the filtering and flushing modes of operation, respectively, to effect a more thorough rinsing of the discs. In addition, the displacement of the discs compacting cylinder can be controlled from outside the system.
Abstract:
A filtration apparatus (10) for treating a fluid comprises a vessel (12), a first partition plate (18) dividing the vessel into first and second chambers (22, 26) and defining a through hole (40), and a filtration module (30) located within the second chamber (26) and including a body section (32) defining an outer diameter which is greater than the diameter of the through hole (40) in the first partition plate (18). The apparatus (10) further comprises a reducing connector (36) having a first end secured to the body section (32) of the filtration module (30) and a second end sealed relative to the through hole (40) in the first partition plate (18) to permit communication between the filtration module (30) and the first chamber (22). In a disclosed embodiment the apparatus (10) includes a second partition plate (20) such that the vessel is divided into first, second and third chambers (22, 24, 26), wherein the filtration module (30) is mounted between the partition plates (18, 20).
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Bierfilter, der einen Filterkessel mit einem Unfiltratzulauf und einem Unfiltratraum, in dem mehrere Filterkerzen angeordnet sind, umfasst. Um eine effizientere Rückspülung zu ermöglichen, werden die Filterkerzen über Ablaufleitungen zusammengefasst, so dass das Filtrat von den Filterkerzen über die entsprechenden Ablaufleitungen mindestens einem Ablauf zugeführt wird.
Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to provide filtering candles (1) comprising a sintered filtering tube (2) and a collar (3) which is connected thereto, and having an increased shelf life and improved resistance values. To this end, the collar (3) comprises an annular collar wall (4) which is oriented towards the filtering tube (2) from the neck. Said wall comprises at least one recess (8) which is arranged in a perpendicular manner and at an angle in relation to a plane which is perpendicular to the axis of the filtering tube.
Abstract:
Split Plate Arrangement, Especially a Plate Filter The invention relates to a plate filter comprising a set (2) of aligned plates (3). Arranged in the plates (3) are apertures (5) that are aligned with one another and form flow channels (6, 7) that extend in the longitudinal direction (8) of the set (2), whereby between adjacent plates (3) filter gaps (4) are formed that are disposed transverse to the longitudinal direction (8) of the filter set (2) and open out into flow channels (7) that withdraw the filtrate. In order to keep the overall size small yet have a high throughput, it is provided that the plates (3) rest directly against one another, with their apertures (5) forming a plurality of flow channels (6, 7) that extend continuously in the longitudinal direction (8) of the filter set (2) and convey unfiltered material or filtrate. Filter gaps (4) are formed between each two adjacent flow channels (6, 7), with flow channels (7) that withdraw the filtrate being disposed next to a flow channel (6) that supplies the unfiltered material. (Fig. 1)
Abstract:
A filter base system (116) may include a mounting bracket (18) configured to be coupled to a machine, and an extension (22) coupled to the mounting bracket. The filter base system may further include a filter assembly coupler (117) associated with the extension. The filter assembly coupler may include an inlet passage (26) configured to provide flow communication from the machine to a filter element (16), and an outlet passage (30) configured to provide flow communication from the filter element to the machine. The filter assembly coupler may also include a receiver (28) including a receiver passage (118) extending transverse to longitudinal axes (P) of the inlet and outlet passages. The filter assembly coupler may further include a base plug (120) including a base plug body (122) including a plug surface (124) configured to cooperate with the filter element, such that orientation of the filter element with respect to the filter assembly coupler depends on orientation of the base plug in the receiver.
Abstract:
