Abstract: Fluid filtration devices and methods of filtering fluids are described. The devices generally include a housing, a hollow filter assembly, a rotating cleaning assembly and a device to measure the accumulation of solids in the filter housing. In some embodiments the accumulation of solids is measured by measuring the torque required to rotate the cleaning assembly. Torque may be measured directly, such as with a torque sensor, or indirectly, such as by measuring the current used by an electric motor to drive rotation of the cleaning assembly. In some embodiments a purge valve is opened to remove accumulated solids from the housing when a certain level of solids accumulation is detected.

Abstract translation: 描述了流体过滤装置和过滤流体的方法。 这些装置通常包括壳体，中空过滤器组件，旋转清洁组件和用于测量过滤器壳体中的固体积聚的装置。 在一些实施例中，通过测量旋转清洁组件所需的扭矩来测量固体的积聚。 扭矩可以直接测量，例如使用扭矩传感器，或间接测量，例如通过测量电动机所使用的电流来驱动清洁组件的旋转。 在一些实施例中，当检测到一定程度的固体积聚时，打开净化阀以从壳体去除积聚的固体。
