Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an electro-filter for separating a mixture of gas and oil drops including: at least one body including at least one oil/gas separation chamber, at least one emitter electrode, and at least one collector electrode made of an electrically-conductive plastic material. The manufacturing method includes at least the following steps: implementation of a first injection cycle having at least one step of injecting the collector electrode, implementation of an overmolding cycle having at least the following steps: displacement of the injected collector electrode into a second cavity of the same mold or into the cavity of another mold, overmolding at least the oil/gas separation chamber of the body at least on the collector electrode, with an electrically-insulating plastic material.
Abstract:
A filtering device including an inlet orifice, an outlet orifice, and a housing, the housing including an inlet compartment and a filtering element arranged in the housing between the inlet compartment and the outlet compartment so as to filter the flow of air, where the filtering device includes a deflector arranged in the inlet compartment and opposite the inlet orifice so as to deflect the flow of dirty air penetrating into the inlet compartment.
Abstract:
This separator device includes a separation chamber having an inlet and an outlet, an oil recovery chamber coupled to the separation chamber, an emitter electrode, a collector electrode, and an electronic unit connected to the emitter and collector electrodes, for during a charging phase, bringing the emitter electrode to a negative potential, so as to negatively charge oil drops, and bringing said at least one collector electrode to a zero or positive potential, so as to collect negatively charged oil drops. The separator device further includes a pressure-drop generating member in the separation chamber. The oil recovery chamber is coupled to the downstream portion of the separation chamber via a vacuuming port, so that the oil recovery chamber is depressed.
