A filter device for treating fluids, in particular for filtering fluids such as fuel, oil, or water, has a housing (56) with a housing pot (58), a housing cover (60), at least one inlet (88) for the fluid to be treated, and at least one outlet (82) for the treated fluid. A connecting head (12) has at least one feed (16) for the fluid to be treated and connectable to the at least one inlet (88), and/or at least one discharge (18). The connecting head (12) and the treatment element (14) can be connected to each other by means of a releasable bayonet-type connecting device (34) through the execution of a rotational/plug-in movement about a connecting axis (20) of the treatment device (10).

A filtering device includes a two-piece housing and a disposable, self-contained filter cartridge. The filter cartridge includes a cylindrical filter with a specialized flow bypass endcap, and possibly a second differentiated endcap, wherein each endcap is coupled to opposing ends of the cylindrical filter. The flow bypass endcap includes two channels for the passage of fluids, one channel for the ingress of pre-filtered fluid another channel for egress of filtrate. The bottom endcap can block fluid flow into the end of the cylindrical filter. The filter cartridge includes an impermeable bladder which may be coupled to the outer surface of each endcap such that the bladder completely encloses the filter media. Fluid entering the system passes through ingress channel of the flow bypass endcap into bladder (which surrounds the filter and isolates the fluid from the filter housing).

A filtration system with a rotating core driving thimble opening and closing water passage, including: a casing, a filter and a connector, wherein the filter and the connector are connected and fixed in the casing; the filter includes a filter element body and a carbon rod; the connector includes a connector core, a water intake thimble, a water outtake thimble; the connector core is provided with a water inlet boss on which a first arc groove is provided, and a water outlet boss on which a second arc groove is provided; the water intake thimble and the water outtake thimble are lifted and falls through the rotation of the connector core, so that a water intake passage and a water outtake passage are opened and closed.

A fluid treatment cartridge includes a housing having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet with a treatment media contained within the housing. The fluid treatment cartridge includes a detection member comprising at least one closed electrically conductive loop having at least two spatially separate sections. Each of the sections generates a magnetic response when at least one section is electromagnetically excited. The magnetic response of each section is predetermined by the physical shape of the section and comprises at least one of a predetermined magnetic phase response and a predetermined magnetic amplitude response. The predetermined magnetic response of at least one other section of the closed electrically conductive loop corresponds to at least a one digit code.

A blood filtering device has a tubular housing with a tubular section and tubular housing volume. A filtration section with a filter medium separating a raw side from a clean side is arranged in the tubular housing. The filtration section is movable along the tubular section and movably sealed relative to the tubular housing. The filtration section separates the tubular housing volume into variable first and second tubular housing volumes. A first communication path extends between raw side and first tubular housing volume. A second communication path exits between raw side and second tubular housing volume. When moving the filtration section, blood in the first tubular housing volume flows through the first communication path to the raw side; blood plasma passes through the filter medium to the clean side; residual blood flows through the second communication path into the variable second tubular housing volume.

A filter element has a filter material defining a raw side and a clean side of the filter element and to be flowed through by a medium to be filtered from the raw side to the clean side. A non-return element is disposed on the filter material. The non-return element allows a return flow of the filtered medium from the clean side back to the raw side and prevents a flow of the unfiltered medium from the raw side to the clean side. A filter and a filter system with such a filter element are disclosed. The filter system has a pump to supply medium to be filtered to the filter.

A diesel fuel pre-filtering system may include a structure for housing at least two filtering areas, a fuel inlet area, and a fuel outlet area. The system may also include an inspection window including a drain for water, a first filtering area structured to define a restriction connecting between the fuel inlet area and a subsequent filtering area, and a second filtering area structured to define a restriction connecting between a preceding filtering area and the fuel outlet area. The structure and the inspection window may be composed of a thermoplastic material distinct from each other and connected to each other via a permanent bond.
