A water treatment insert for a pool skimmer system includes a chemical treatment portion separated from a mechanical filtration portion. The treatment device includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper section can include a vertical wall or walls, which should be substantially watertight so that substantially all the water entering the pool skimmer flows through the upper portion, and then into the lower section. The entire device is preferably received in the filter basket receiving section of a conventional pool skimmer, in place of the conventional filter basket. One of the upper and lower sections provides mechanical filtration and the other chemical treatment, to enhance the water treatment function of the skimmer.

A fluid separation apparatus includes a container for capturing liquid juice separated from blended juice. The fluid separation apparatus also includes a filter basket supported by the container. The filter basket includes an upper portion that engages with the container and a cylindrical extension portion that extends from the upper portion. The fluid separation apparatus also has a filtering device that can extend into and through the filter basket. The filtering device is supported by the filter basket at a top end and has a bottom end that extends past the cylindrical extension portion of the filter basket. The fluid separation apparatus has a press assembly having a rod element with a handle disposed on a first end of the rod element and a press disposed on a second end of the rod element.

Disclosed is a filter attachment that removably couples with a faucet or other vessel. The attachment includes a flexible cover holding the filter on the vessel and that acts as a pressure relief mechanism if the water pressure of the faucet is above a predetermined threshold. Another flexible cover may be located on the opposite side of the attachment to allow reversible use and cleaning by backwashing. The attachment may further include a removable cap on one side that includes a flexible cover and that couples to the remainder of the attachment in a removable manner so as to allow other fitments to couple to the attachment.

The invention relates to an end plate for filter material (10) for filtering a liquid, particularly a hydraulic oil, having a through opening (11) for filtered liquid, which is surrounded by a sealing ring (20) for a connecting piece, and a cover (12) for the filter material (10). The invention is characterized in that the sealing ring (20) delimits a free space (13) for accommodating an anti-rotation lock (14) of a switch (15) and/or a bypass valve (16) of a filter system (30). Furthermore, the invention relates to a filter element, a filter system and a method for filtering liquid.

A filter arrangement includes first and second media packs with a support core in between. The support core includes a first ring at one end and, optionally, second ring at an opposite end. In some arrangements, at least a first member and second member extend from the first ring while being engagement-free to each other. In some arrangements, no more than a first member extends from the first ring, while being engagement-free relative to itself.
