Regenerative Media Filter Cleaning Apparatus and Method
A method of filtering water in a system comprising a regenerative media filter is disclosed. The method includes operating the system in a filtration mode, operating the system in a cleaning mode responsive to a differential pressure measurement across the regenerative media filter, and operating the system in a pre-filtration mode after operating the system in the cleaning mode. A water filtration system is also disclosed. The water filtration system includes a regenerative media filter vessel, a pressure sensor subsystem, a filtrate line, a feed line, a recirculation line, a plurality of valves, at least one pump, and a controller. The controller is configured to direct the water through the system. A method of facilitating filtration of aquatic or recreational facilities water is also disclosed. The method includes providing a water filtration system and providing a controller.
Carbon capture adapter
The present disclosure relates to a carbon capture adapter that may attach to high air flow systems. A carbon capture adapter may utilize the air flow foundations of a high air flow system to allow for capture of unfiltered ambient air, allowing for carbon removal and the scrubbing of the unfiltered ambient air. The carbon capture adapter may comprise of carbon sensors that may detect carbon levels of the air before and after the carbon has been scrubbed or removed from the ambient air. The carbon capture adapter may capture and transform the carbon into secondary substances that may be useful unto itself, even further limiting waste and environmental damage. The carbon capture adapter will have all inputs, outputs, processes, and flows that meet all aspects of a closed loop system that is specifically designed for CCS.
ELECTRONIC FILTER DETECTION FEATURE FOR LIQUID FILTRATION SYSTEMS
A filter monitor system (“FMS”) module is installed on the engine/vehicle and is connected to the filter systems, sensors and devices to monitor various performance parameters. The module also connects to the engine control module (“ECM”) and draws parameters from the ECM. The FMS module is capable of interfacing with various output devices such as a smartphone application, a display monitor, an OEM telematics system or a service technician's tool on a computer. The FMS module consists of hardware and software algorithms which constantly monitor filter systems and provide information to the end-user. FMS module provides necessary inputs and outputs for electronic sensors and devices.
POOL FILTER ASSEMBLY
A pool filter system includes a filter housing with an open interior. A pleated filter container in the open interior of the filter housing has a pleated filter side wall and divides the interior of the filter housing into an pleated filter compartment and an particulate filter compartment surrounding the pleated filter side wall. The pleated filter side wall has a plurality of pleated filter container openings. A particulate filter medium is within the particulate filter compartment, and a pleated filter is within the open interior of the pleated filter compartment. A water inlet communicates with the particulate filter compartment, and a water outlet communicates with the pleated filter compartment. The pleated filter container openings in the pleated filter container side wall have a dimension that is less than the diameter of the particulate filter medium. A backwash assembly and a method of filtering pool water is also disclosed.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND SEPARATION OF COMPOUNDS CARRIED IN A FLUID STREAM
Described herein is a method of identifying components in a fluid stream. Particularly, the invention relates to the identification and/or separation of one or more materials suspended in a fluid stream.
AUTOMATIC SAND FILTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER
A system includes a sand filter disposed within a tank. A pipe connected to the tank is configured to flow fluid in or out of the tank. The system includes a valve configured to selectively allow fluid to flow through the pipe and a flowmeter configured to measure a flow rate of fluid through the pipe. An automatic control unit includes one or more processors and a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to perform operations including determining a debris accumulation status for the sand filter based in part on flow measurements from the flowmeter, and determining a failure status of the valve based in part on flow measurements from the flowmeter.
AUTOMATIC SAND FILTER BACKWASH CONTROLLER
A sand filter controller for monitoring and controlling an operation of a sand filter is provided. The sand filter controller includes a microcontroller that receives information about an operation of the sand filter from sensors installed in the sand filter, electrical relays that control air operated valves (AOVs) of the sand filter based on signals from the microcontroller, a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen connected to the microcontroller and that displays the operation of the sand filter, a position of each of the electrical relays, and a position of each of the AOVs, and a power supply that powers the microcontroller, the electrical relays, and the LCD screen. The sand filter is a single-housing-multi-stage water treatment sand filter.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FUEL FILTER MONITORING
A fuel filter monitoring method includes receiving pressure signals that are indicative of a pressure drop across at least one fuel filter of a fuel supply system configured to supply fuel to at least one fuel injector of an internal combustion engine and receiving a condition signal indicative of a condition of a fuel supply system, the condition signal being generated by one or more of a geographic location sensor, an altitude sensor, and/or a fuel temperature sensor. The method includes estimating a remaining life of at least one fuel filter of the fuel supply system based on the pressure signal and the condition signal and outputting a notification indicative of the estimated remaining life.
Security system for fluid filtration device
A security system for a fluid filtration device and, more particularly, a security system that is adapted to pair a filter with a fluid filtration device, log an effectiveness of each individually serialized filter, prevent re-usage of a filter in more than one filtration device and prevent usage of a filter for greater than its preprogrammed lifespan.
