Disclosed herein is a refrigerator, and more particularly, to a refrigerator including a water supply system. The refrigerator includes a main body including a storage compartment, and a water supply assembly disposed in the storage compartment. The water supply assembly includes a first filter mounting portion provided to allow a first filter to be mounted thereon, and a second filter mounting portion provided to allow a second filter to be mounted thereon, and including a residual water guide configured to guide residual water in the second filter mounting portion to the first filter mounting portion.

A filter medium for removing contaminants from water includes a matrix including a plurality of fibers having an electrostatic charge such that the matrix is configured to remove contaminants from water by electrostatic attraction. The filter medium further includes a filler material including a ceramic substrate containing a mineral. The filler material is embedded in the matrix. When water flows through the filter medium, the mineral at least partially dissolves in the water such that a cavity is formed in the matrix in a location of the at least partially dissolved mineral.

A fuel module for pumping and filtration of a fuel in a fuel system includes a flow housing, and each of an electrically powered pump, a first cartridge filter, and a second cartridge filter in sealed, direct engagement with the flow housing. The fuel module is applied in a low pressure fuel circuit feeding fuel to a high pressure fuel circuit for pressurization to an injection pressure. Electronic closed loop control techniques for the pump are also disclosed.

A filter device may include a filter housing and a filter element defining a longitudinal axis disposed in the filter housing. The filter element may be configured to be penetrated by a fluid flow in a radial direction from a raw end to a pure end of the filter element. A water separator may be disposed at the pure end of the filter element and arranged axially spaced from the same. The water separator may have a hydrophobic and annular diaphragm extending in an axial direction of the filter element configured to be penetrated by the fluid flow from a raw end of the water separator in a radially outward to a radially inward direction with respect to the longitudinal axis to separate water from the fluid flow.

A mobile oil filtration system includes a mobile oil reservoir having a plurality of wheels; a housing secured to the mobile oil reservoir; an input conduit secured to the housing; a pump in fluid communication with the input conduit; a spring-loaded filter downstream from and in fluid communication with the pump; a bag filter downstream from and in fluid communication with the spring-loaded filter; and an output conduit secured to the housing and in fluid communication with the bag filter.

In one aspect, a modular filter assembly for filtering fluid that flows in a flow direction therethrough is disclosed. The assembly includes a first housing section having a first filter element; a second housing section having a second filter element; and a connector disposed between the first and second housing sections. A housing includes the first housing section, the connector, and the second housing section. The flow direction is through the first and second filter elements in series.

A filter apparatus connected a container, where the container includes a container neck and is filled with a filling material. The filter apparatus includes a filtrate riser tube in the container, which extends from the base region of the container to the container neck, a container connector head, which is fastened to the container neck and defines passages connected to a liquid inlet line and an inlet filter, and a connector unit with a sealing piston in the connector unit, which is arranged so as to be lowerable to connect the liquid inlet line to the filter material in the container and the filtrate riser tube to the filtrate outlet line.

The present invention relates to a method for converting a full flow oil and/or fuel filter system into a bypass filter system comprising the use of a retro-fittable bypass filter configured to directly replace the pre-existing full flow filter, without the need for additional hoses or mounts etc. as in existing methods. Also described is a filter device for converting a full flow oil and/or fuel filter system into a bypass filter system comprising: an inlet for allowing fluid into the filter; a plurality of screens for filtering particles from the fluid; a cellulose element for filtering moisture from the fluid; an outlet for allowing fluid out of the filter; and a bypass for fluid to bypass the cellulose element and at least one screen and exit the filter, wherein the bypass filter is configured to directly replace the pre-existing full flow filter.
