An all-in-one, universal bacteria filter apparatus which (i) can be used with oxygen concentrators produced by numerous different manufactures, (ii) can be used with concentrators of different capacities, and (ii) can be use in both vertical and horizontal orientations.

An apparatus for preparing food having a heating device with hot plate, a filter device and a cover device, which is in operative connection with the filter device and has an upper side, an underside and side surfaces. The cover device, on the underside, has at least one entry opening of a flow channel for exhaust air, the flow channel being arranged in the interior of the cover device. The flow channel, on a first side surface, has an exit opening, wherein the exit opening can be positioned such that the exhaust air can flow via the exit opening into an entry opening of the filter device.

A separation device for separating fluid from a gas stream has a housing with housing corpus and housing cover non-detachably connected to the housing corpus. A hollow cylindrical filter insert is received in the housing in a flow path of the gas stream from a raw gas inlet to a clean gas outlet. The filter insert has first and second end discs at first and second axial end face sides. The filter insert has a main separator element with hollow cylindrical coalescing filter medium with coalescer material for removing fluid from the gas stream that is flowing radially through the main separator element. A preliminary separator element having a coalescing filter medium with coalescer material is arranged in the flow path of the gas stream between the raw gas inlet and the filter insert for removing fluid from the gas stream.

The present disclosure relates to a filter apparatus for filtering liquid from a gas, the apparatus having a first housing having a gas inlet and a gas outlet; a first filter media disposed in the first housing; a second filter media disposed in the housing; and a second housing forming a first collection basin disposed in the flow path between the first filter media and the second filter media, so that a path is defined for the gas flowing from the inlet, through the first filter media, past the collection basin, through the second filter media, and to the outlet. The present disclosure also relates to a method of passing a gas through a coalescing filter media and through a hydrophobic filter media.

A filtered air supply assembly includes a filtration unit that can be worn on a user's clothing. The filtration unit including a plurality of filters each is integrated therein and each of the filters is filter air that is pumped by the filtration unit. A mask is provided that can be worn on the user's face. A mask air hose is fluidly coupled to the mask and the mask air hose receives air from the filtration unit thereby facilitating the user to breathe the filtered air when the mask is worn. A nose air hose can be fluidly coupled to the filtration unit thereby facilitating the user to breathe the filtered air when the nose air hose is positioned in the user's nose.

An environmental control unit comprises a housing, a vacuum cleaner, a filtration unit, and a blower. The vacuum cleaner is positioned in the housing and is configured to receive a tool contaminant stream produced by at least one tool. The vacuum cleaner filters particulate matter from the tool contaminant stream, thereby producing a filtered air stream. The filtration unit is also positioned within the housing and comprises at least one filter. The blower is positioned within the housing downstream of the filtration unit. The blower is configured to create negative air pressure within the second compartment to draw an area contaminant stream from an exterior of the environmental control unit into the housing. A second blower may also be present. The blower draws the filtered air stream and the area contaminant stream through the at least one filter in the filtration unit to produce a filtered mixture stream.
