A filter system can include a replaceable filter cartridge having a spinner element structured to swirl a mixed flow of compressible fluid and oil, as well as an end cap used to enclose an open interior of a filter media of the filter cartridge. The filter cartridge can be configured to interface with and be supported by a mesh holder. A housing can be attached over the filter cartridge to enclose the system and create a flow path for a mixed flow of compressible fluid and oil. The replaceable filter cartridge can be constructed of materials suitable for disposal in a waste incineration process. The mesh holder can be inserted on a combo-block and secured in place by a compression fitting. A stand pipe can extend into the interior of the filter media and be coupled with a central passage of the mesh holder.

A liquid separator (10) has a horizontal main pipe (100) and a collecting basin (200) arranged sealingly on the underside of the main pipe (100). A partition wall (310) extends transverse to the main pipe (100) and divides the collecting basin (200) into first and second basin chambers (210, 220). The first basin chamber (210) is connected to the interior of the main pipe (100) via passage openings (320), and the second basin chamber (220) has an outlet opening (230). The partition wall (310) extends sealingly on the underside of the main pipe across the width of the collecting basin (200) and has a connecting opening interconnecting the first and second basin chambers (210, 220) in a fluid-conducting manner. The second basin chamber (220) has no direct connection to the interior of the main pipe (100) and the outlet opening is higher than an upper edge of the connection opening.

Air cleaner assemblies, components therefor, and features thereof are described. Also described are methods of assembly and use. In depicted examples, the air cleaner assemblies and components optionally use advantageous housing seal features. Methods of assembly and use are described.

A separating device for separating a liquid from gas is provided with a separating element that has a housing with housing cover closing off an end face of the housing. A filter element is arranged in the housing. A coupling element is provided to couple the separating element to a connector device. The housing cover has a central first gas passage and a second gas passage arranged radially outwardly of the first gas passage. The housing cover has a housing cover thread correlated with the first gas passage. The housing cover thread is to be screwed to a coupling element thread of the coupling element. A fluid discharge channel is arranged within the coupling element for discharging separated liquid from the separating device. The housing cover thread and the coupling element thread, in a position of use of the separating device, are connected substantially seal-tightly to each other.

Mist and vapor eliminating filters, devices, methods of filtering aircraft air using the devices, and systems including the devices, are disclosed.

A filter cartridge for surgical gas delivery systems includes a filter housing configured to be seated in a filter cartridge interface of a surgical gas delivery system. A first filter element is seated in a first end portion of the filter housing. A second filter element is seated in a second end portion of the filter housing opposite the first end portion. A third filter element is seated in the filter housing between the first and second filter elements. The third filter element can include an activated carbon material, such as an activated carbon disc.

A device for treating fluid, in particular a filter device, has first and second tubular elements (12), (14) forming an element assembly (10). One element (14) is accommodated in the other element (12) forming a flow chamber (33) between the two elements (12, 14), with a first element (12) arranged in the direction of the inflow side (29) of a fluid to be treated and a second element (14) arranged in the direction of the outflow side (31) of the treated fluid in the element assembly (10). During the fluid treatment, the flow is routed through both elements (12, 14) in succession from the direction of the inflow side (29) towards the outflow side (31). In a joint viewing direction (P), the first element (12) facing the inflow side (29) at least partially has a uniform or non-uniform contour and the second element (14) facing the outflow side (31) at least partially has a non-uniform or uniform contour.

An apparatus for use in harvesting airborne moisture includes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a woven mesh, supported by the UAV, for collecting liquid droplets upon contact with a fog bank, a camera, a processor, a non-transitory, tangible computer readable memory storing software instructions executable by the processor, a fog identification engine, and a flight controller on board the UAV. The fog identification engine is executable on the processor according to the software instructions and is configurable to capture a digital image via the camera, detect an absence of features in the digital image, and identify a fog bank as a function of the absence of features in the digital image. The flight controller directs the UAV to enter a fog bank identified by the fog identification engine.

A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a filtration member and a case. The case has an inner chamber for accommodating the filtration member. The case has a drainage port for draining liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The drainage port is at least one opening formed at the bottom of the inner chamber. The case includes a cover that covers the drainage port. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside. The outlet is lower than the drainage port. At least one baffle plate is disposed inside the cover. The baffle plate has a slope on the side of the baffle plate facing the drainage port, thereby forming a ramp.

A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a first portion including a first engaging portion and a second portion including a second engaging portion. The second portion is attached to the first portion by engagement of the second engaging portion with the first engaging portion. The first portion includes a filtration member and a case. The case includes an inner chamber within which the filtration member is disposed. The case includes a drainage port configured to drain liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The second portion is attached to the first portion to form a cover that covers the drainage port together with the first portion. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside at a position lower than the drainage port.
