A filter cartridge is provided. The filter cartridge includes a filter element comprising a filter media, and the filter element extends between an inlet face and an outlet face. The filter element defines a periphery surrounding the filter media. The filter cartridge also includes a border frame including a plurality of side panels, and the side panels are independently molded-in-place along the periphery of the filter element. Adjacent members of the side panels are joined together along a plurality of mold interface seams, and the mold interface seams are spaced around the periphery. The plurality of side panels are embedded in and seal the periphery of the filter element such that fluid flow inside the border frame is directed to pass through the filter media for filtering in order to pass from the inlet face to the outlet face.

A filter cartridge having a filter media with two opposing ends each being occluded by an adhesive edge seal.

An air filter media construction or arrangement is disclosed. The air filter media construction or arrangement includes media comprising opposite inlet and outlet flow faces, with a perimeter housing seal. Also described are serviceable filter cartridges and air cleaners including the filter cartridges. Methods of assembly and use are also provided.

Filters and filter assemblies including one or more shield elements to protect the filter media of the filters during installation of the filters into a filter housing of the filter assembly are provided. A filter includes first and second media packs, a housing seal system, a handle and a shield element. Filter media packs extend from a first end to a second end in a diverging manner. The first end has a length dimension and a width dimension that extend transversely. A shield element projects over the first and second media packs at the first end a span in the width direction of at least 40% of the width dimension defined by the first and second media packs and projecting a span in the length direction of at least 5% of the length dimension defined by the first end.

To provide a high-temperature filter having a seal to maintain filtering properties and generating less dust at a high temperature. The high-temperature filter (1) comprises a filtering medium (2) made of glass fibers, which is folded in a zigzag pattern; a separator (4) that is folded in a wave shape and inserted into gaps of the filtering medium; a frame (6) made of stainless steel that houses the filtering medium and the separator; and end seals (8) made of ceramic that is applied to the frame and solidified after an end of the filtering medium is immersed thereinto, which ceramic is modified to have a coefficient of thermal expansion that is the same as that of the stainless steel. The separator is preferably made of the glass fibers used for the filtering medium. A spacer (14) may be provided on the surface of the filtering medium instead of the separator.

An air filter arrangement is disclosed. The air filter arrangement includes media comprising corrugated media secured to facing media and defining a media pack having opposite flow faces. Media pack arrangements including such media are described. Also described are filter cartridges including such media packs and air cleaners including the filter cartridges. Advantageous housing seal arrangements having a pinch seal member and forming a trough are described. Methods of assembly and use are also provided. Also, systems of use are described.

An air filter media construction or arrangement is disclosed. The air filter media construction or arrangement includes media comprising opposite inlet and outlet flow faces, with a perimeter housing seal. Also described are serviceable filter cartridges and air cleaners including the filter cartridges. Methods of assembly and use are also provided.

According to the present disclosure, features, components and techniques useable for providing air cleaner arrangements are provided. Many of the features relate to an axial seal arrangement provided on a filter cartridge. A typical filter cartridge, for use with these features, is a filter cartridge having opposite flow ends. Example media arrangements that fit this characterization are described. Seal arrangements provided with an axial housing sealing engagement surface are shown. A seal arrangement is provided. Also, air cleaner assemblies having advantageous features therein are provided. Further, air cleaner housings are described, with selected, preferred features for engagement with filter cartridges.

Filter cartridge arrangements, features, and methods of construction are described. Also described are filter assemblies having the filter cartridge installed therein as a removable service component. The filter cartridge generally comprises a media pack having an end with an end cap positioned thereon. The end cap includes an end cap section, a seal support and a seal member secured thereto. Methods of assembly and use are described.
