The invention relates to a vane diffuser for separating a gas/liquid/particulate-mixture flow in a gas phase fraction and a liquid/particulate phase fraction, comprising: a distribution chamber holding a plurality of curved vanes and an inlet for the gas/liquid/particulate-mixture wherein the vane diffuser also comprises a cyclone pre-separator located before the distribution chamber. The invention also relates to a method for separating a gas/liquid/particulate-mixture.

An air cleaner having a filter, causing air to pass through the filter and discharging the filtered air. The air cleaner includes: an air duct having an inlet via which air is received and an outlet facing a first part of a main surface of the filter and via which the received air is output towards the first part of the main surface; a fan causing air to be received by the air duct via the inlet, to be output from the air duct via the outlet, and to pass through the filter; and a flow distributer disposed between the outlet and the filter. The flow distributer changes a direction of flow of air output from the air duct from towards the first part of the main surface to towards a second part of the main surface of the filter that does not facing the outlet.

An air cleaner is provided. The air cleaner may include a first air cleaning module including a first fan, a first filter, and a first inlet through which air is suctioned in a radial into the first filter; a second air cleaning module provided over the first air cleaner including a second fan, a second filter, and a second inlet through which air is suctioned in the radial direction to the second filter; and an air flow controller coupled with the second air cleaning module and including a third fan to control a flow of the air discharged from the second air cleaning module.

Assemblies, features, and techniques for pulse jet air cleaner assemblies and their operation are described. Techniques described include methodology and equipment for preferred pulse jet sequencing and operation.

A dust collector is provided, which includes a housing, a filter screen, and a spiral air director. The housing is provided with an air inlet, an air inlet channel, an air outlet channel, an air outlet, and a dust collection chamber. The dust collection chamber is in communication with the air inlet and the air outlet through the air inlet channel and the air outlet channel, respectively. The filter screen is disposed in the air outlet channel. The spiral air director is disposed in the air outlet channel and located on at least one side of an air inlet side and an air outlet side of the filter screen. Air flow flowing through the air outlet channel is directed by the spiral air director to form a swirling air flow.

A filter device is disclosed having a round filter element having a filter medium body with an open interior. The filter element is installable into a filter housing having a base filter housing and a housing cover, in which an inflow opening of the cover overlaps against and aligns with an inflow opening of a base housing part such they form a continuous inflow opening. A support mesh cage arranged on the radially outer wall of the annular filter medium body. The filter housing has a longitudinally extended cross-sectional shape in which the inflow opening and an outlet opening are both arranged on the base housing part at opposing sides of the base housing part.

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.

A filtering system may include a holder and an exchangeable filter element. The filter element may include a first end plate, a second end plate, and a filtering material arranged between the first end plate and the second end plate that separates a filtered zone from an unfiltered zone. The second end plate may protrude beyond the filtering material. The filtering system may further include at least one filtered opening and at least one unfiltered opening, and the at least one filtered opening may be disposed in the filter element. The filter element may lie detachably on the holder, and the holder together with the second end plate, the filtering material and an outer wall may enclose the unfiltered zone.

A filter element is provided with an annular filter medium body and an end disk arranged at an end face of the annular filter medium body. Guide vanes are arranged adjacent to the end disk, wherein the guide vanes extend radially past an outer contour of the end disk and project into a flow path upstream of an inflow side of the annular filter medium body. The guide vanes are held at the end disk.

A base platform with a plurality of platform legs mounted to said base platform for raising said base platform. A bedding tray is carried by said base platform with a plurality of tray legs mounted to said bedding tray raising said bedding tray above said base platform to define an air channel between said base platform and said bedding tray. A blower unit is carried by said base platform with an air duct disposed on a perimeter of said base platform receiving air from said blower unit. An air suction gap is disposed between said air duct and said bedding tray with at least one air discharge port disposed in said air duct directing air into said air channel underneath said bedding tray and drawing air downward through said air suction gap around said bedding tray.
