An apparatus and methods are provided for an air filter for removing contaminants from air within interior building spaces. The air filter comprises a V-bank filter element for removing contaminants from an airstream flowing through a HVAC system. The V-bank filter element includes filter panels that are angled with respect to one another to form adjacent V-configurations such that front edges of adjacent filter panels are placed in contact and rear edges of adjacent filter panels similarly placed in contact. A top member and a bottom member receive top and bottom edges of the filter panels for supporting the V-configurations. A frame couples with the top member and the bottom member and orients the V-bank filter element within the HVAC system such that the airstream is directed through the V-bank filter element. Openings are disposed in the frame for allowing the airstream to enter the V-bank filter element.

A pocket filter comprising a plurality of filter pockets, a frame holding the filter pockets, and at least one clamping strip fixing filter layers of two neighboring filter pockets. A profile of the clamping strip is designed in one piece and has a first section and a second section that are movably connected to one another, a T-shaped locking element is formed on the first section, and the T-shaped locking element has a base and a cross-piece extending substantially perpendicularly to the base. A proximal hook-shaped locking element and a distal hook-shaped locking element are formed on the second section, between which the T-shaped locking element is arranged and which engage behind the cross-piece when the clamping strip is in a locked state in which the filter layers of the two neighboring filter pockets are clamped in the clamping strip.

An air filter including a base and a first and second frame element is disclosed. Each frame element is coupled to the base. The frame elements have an oscillating shape having a first portion relatively close to the base and a second portion relatively farther from the base. A filter element generally follows the oscillating shape of the frame elements. An air filter system is also disclosed. The air filter system can include the air filter and an air filter container. The air filter container contains the air filter and directs air through the air filter in a predetermined direction. An air filter is disclosed including a support structure and an oscillating shaped filter element attached to the support structure. The oscillating shape increases the air filter surface area for a given volume.

A cassette filter for cleaning a fluid includes: a frame; and a plurality of filter elements having a filter medium provided with a folding. The plurality of filter elements are accommodated in a frame such that at least two adjoining filter elements of the plurality of filter elements are arranged at an acute angle to one another and form a V-shaped arrangement. Each of the plurality of filter elements has folded edges which are formed by fold peaks and fold valleys and extend perpendicularly to legs of the acute angle. Each filter element of the plurality of filter elements is provided with foldings such that a height of the respective filter element is smaller at all edge regions than a height in a central region of the respective filter element, and smaller folding surfaces than the central region result at the edge regions.

An adjustable filter assembly for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a first filter retainer configured to capture a first filter and a second filter retainer configured to capture a second filter. The adjustable filter assembly also includes a hinge coupled between first filter retainer and the second filter retainer and about which the first filter retainer and the second filter retainer are configured to rotate to position the first filter and the second filter at an angle relative to one another in a first angled operating configuration and to align the first filter and the second filter with one another in a second angled operating configuration.

A filter element includes first filter media, second filter media, a frame, and a seal member. The frame is coupled to the first filter media and the second filter media, the frame securing the first filter media and the second filter media into a V-shape. The seal member is attached to and extends from the frame. The seal member includes a U-shaped channel structured to receive a ridge of a housing when the filter element is installed in the housing. The seal member is structured to form a seal between the filter element and the housing when the filter element is installed in the housing.

Systems and methods of filtering with filter assemblies including a frame having a header structure, an end cap structure, and a plurality of side plates coupling the header structure to the end cap structure are provided. The filter pleated media may include an upstream surface and a downstream surface opposite the upstream surface in a direction of flow through the filter assembly, and the filter pleated media may include a pleated configuration. The filter assemblies may further include a support member coupled to a portion of the frame and along at least one of the upstream surface or the downstream surface of the filter pleated media. The support member may at least partially penetrate the pleated configuration and extend into a pleat of the pleated configuration of the filter pleat media.

Disclosed is glue-free airtight filtering equipment comprising a filter housing, a plurality of filter elements and a plurality of receiving supporting elements, each filter element having a filtering surface, the plurality of filter elements being detachably disposed in the filtering space in a manner that the filtering surface is parallel to the upper surface and the bottom surface of the filter housing, and the plurality of receiving supporting elements allocating on an inner wall of the filter housing and being spaced apart from each other with a designated distance so as to correspondingly receive and support the plurality of filter elements, wherein a gap is provided between the filter element and the inner wall of the filter housing, and the filtering surface of the filter element and the maximum value of the gap satisfy a relational expression.

In a filtration system, in particular for cleaning the intake air of a gas turbine, including a flow channel surrounded by walls with an inflow opening and an outflow opening, a partition wall with at least two openings between a dirty side and a clean side which is positioned between the inflow opening and the outflow opening and limited by the walls of the flow channel, and at least two filters for purifying a flowing fluid. At least one filter is installed at a first opening on the dirty side of the partition wall and at least one filter at a second opening on the clean side of the partition wall.
