Methods, apparatus and products for filtering, utilizing a filter system having a filter element coupled with a coalescer element and an intermediate element interposed between the filter and coalescer elements, wherein the intermediate element serves to improve function of the filter system by shifting the flow pattern between the filter and coalescer elements and/or precondition the droplets for the coalescer.

The present disclosure provides, in one embodiment, a filter device comprising a mouthpiece, a filter assembly in communication with the mouthpiece for filtering air exhaled into the mouthpiece, and an outlet check valve which permits air to be exhaled through the mouthpiece into the filter assembly, and substantially prohibits air from being inhaled from the filter assembly into the mouthpiece.

An oil separator for a compressor comprising a tank and a lid for the tank, which comprises, in an integral manner, a valve body defining an outlet duct of the separator, a head of a coalescence filter, a body of an anti-condensate valve, a body of a minimum pressure valve and the relative connection ducts.

A heater-integrated filter includes: a casing in which are formed an intake port for taking in a portion of process gas from a compressor and a discharge port for discharging the process gas; a filter body which is provided inside the casing and through which the process gas from the intake port passes; and rod-like heaters which are disposed inside the casing and along which the process gas that has passed through the filter body is capable of flowing toward the discharge port along the extension direction.

A vent assembly (100) has a vent body (110) defining a first end (104) and a second end (106), a central axis extending from the first end to the second end, and an inner surface defining a cavity. A first retainer extends across the cavity towards the first end of the vent body, and a second retainer (140) extends across the cavity towards the second end of the vent body. The first retainer defines a first retainer opening extending to a first radial distance from the central axis, and the second retainer defines a second retainer opening extending to a second radial distance from the central axis, where the second radial distance is greater than the first radial distance. Coalescing filter media is disposed in the cavity between the first retainer and the second retainer. The coalescing filter media, the cavity, the first retainer, and the second retainer cumulatively define an airflow pathway.

An oil separator unit including an upstream member having an opening through which the blowby gas passes, a downstream member having a hit portion hit by the blowby gas, and a porous member trapping the oil mist contained in the blowby gas that has passed through the through hole. The upstream member includes an upstream surface facing a first surface of the porous member and a pair of recesses formed in substantially U-shapes along circumference portions in both end sides on an upstream surface of the upstream member, and the downstream member includes a pair of flange parts formed in substantially U-shapes so as to fit in the pair of recesses.

A desander for use with a separator for removing sand and other particles from gas under pressure including a diverter manifold including an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The inlet opening is configured for receiving the gas. The outlet opening is in fluid communication with a housing. The housing includes processing equipment for separating sand, particles, and/or liquid from the gas. The diverter manifold includes a flow diverter. The flow diverter is configured to redirect the path of the gas and its contaminants. The diverter manifold is also designed to slow down a velocity of the gas entering into the inlet opening prior to entrance of the gas into the housing of the separator to reduce erosion of the processing equipment and to facilitate separation of the sand and particles from the gas. A method of removing sand, other particles, and liquid from gas under pressure is also provided.

A separating module for a ventilation device has a housing that surrounds a separating element designed to separate liquid particles from a gas flow. A line module and a ventilation device with such a separating module and such a line module are provided. The housing of the separating module is designed to be connected to the line module that has at least three geometrically parallel channels and the housing of the separating module has corresponding housing openings to be connected to the at least three channels. Several separating modules and several line modules can be combined to adapt the ventilation system as needed.

A road vehicle with a vehicle frame and a rear axle connected to the vehicle frame is provided with an ambient air purification device with filter elements for removing dust, particulate matter, and gases from ambient air. The ambient air purification device is arranged transverse to a longitudinal vehicle axis in an exterior region of the road vehicle at a vehicle rear of the road vehicle in an underfloor region such that at least the filter elements are arranged behind the rear axle of the road vehicle in a travel direction of the road vehicle. The ambient air purification device is received in an installation space of the vehicle frame. The ambient air purification device is flowed through in longitudinal vehicle direction. A free outflow zone of the ambient air purification device is arranged, in travel direction of the road vehicle, behind the ambient air purification device.

Disclosed are multiple stage rotating coalescer devices comprising a first stage and a second stage. The first stage may include a rotating coalescing element comprising coalescing media. The second stage is positioned either upstream or downstream or the first stage. The second stage may include one of: (i) a rotating cone stack separator, or (ii) a separate rotating coalescing element comprising coalescing media.
