The present invention relates to a device and method for determining the pollution status of a particle filter (10) for an air-cleaning device (1) with increased accuracy at low extra costs. The device comprises a sheet resistance input (43) for obtaining sheet resistance information (21) indicating or allowing to determine an electrical sheet resistance of the particle filter (10); a humidity input (44) for obtaining humidity information (31) indicating the relative humidity of the filter's environment; and a processor (45) for comparing the electrical sheet resistance indicated by or determined from the obtained sheet resistance information (21) with a reference sheet resistance of a clean particle filter at the relative humidity (31) indicated by the obtained humidity information and given at the time of acquisition of said electrical sheet resistance and for generating, based on said comparison, a control signal (41) for control of the air-cleaning device and/or a status information (42) indicating the pollution status of the particle filter (10).

An air filter includes filter media, a sensor, and circuitry coupled to the sensor, the circuitry configured to receive data from the sensor representative of the condition of the filter media and wirelessly transmit such data. The data may be received by a device with a display to use the information to present an indication of the filter media condition to a user.

There is provided an air cleaner configured to be disposed inside a vehicle body frame, the air cleaner including: an air cleaner case in which an intake chamber is formed; an intake air temperature sensor configured to detect an intake air temperature in the intake chamber; an inlet tube configured to take in air to the intake chamber; and an outlet tube configured to send out air from the intake chamber. The outlet tube has an upstream portion protruding into the intake chamber, and the upstream portion of the outlet tube has a peripheral wall formed with a through hole.

A system for providing filtered air to an enclosed space includes a first air feed pump to pull air from an environment and push pressurized air to the enclosed space, a power source adapted to provide electrical power to the first air feed pump, a first filter media positioned between the first air feed pump and the enclosed space to provide coarse filtration of the pressurized air pumped from the first air feed pump through the first filter media and remove particles that are larger than approximately 5 microns, and a second filter media positioned between the first filter media and the enclosed space to provide fine filtration of the pressurized air pumped from the first filter media through the second filter media and remove particles that are between 1 nanometer and 20 nanometers in size.

The present disclosure relates to air filters. More particularly, it relates to air filters including pleated filter media that can be uniformly expanded and contracted. In some embodiments, the air filters are adjustably sized air filter systems. In some embodiments, the air filters can be used in a window opening.

One or more embodiments provide method and device for treating various type of fluids.

One or more embodiments provide method and device for treating various type of fluids.

An air sensor system including a pressure or airflow sensor, a filter housing that defines an air flow path to the air pressure sensor, and a filter in the air flow path. The filter includes a micro filter and a hydrophobic membrane. The hydrophobic membrane is downstream of the micro filter in the air flow path to the pressure or airflow sensor.

A frame for a foldable and disposable air filter media is disclosed. The frame has a frame base and a frame cover having a size to overlap the air filter media. The frame cover is attached to the frame base by hinges allowing movement of the frame cover between an open position and a closed latched position. The closed frame holds the air filter media between the frame base and frame cover when in the closed position. The frame base includes an air flow monitoring system with an air pressure differential sensor to determine when the filter needs to be replaced. The frame also has capability to hold additional sensors for monitoring environmental conditions. A processor and memory enable collection and storage of sensed data. A communication module on the frame communicates air filter media change requirement to external devices including hand-held devices or a cloud server.

A method for filtering a gas includes delivering a gas into a compartment of a gas filter assembly; applying a partial vacuum to the gas filter assembly so that the partial vacuum assists in drawing the gas through a porous filter body of the gas filter assembly that is at least partially disposed within the compartment of the gas filter assembly; and regulating the application of the partial vacuum based on a pressure reading of the gas upstream or downstream of the gas filter assembly.
