Three-dimensional printer with two state filter for powdered metal
A three-dimensional printing system for manufacturing three-dimensional articles includes an apparatus, a filtration system, and a controller. The apparatus is a fabrication system that generates ignitable powder dust in an inert atmosphere fluid stream. The filtration system receives the fluid stream and has a plurality of filter units in a parallel arrangement including at least a first filter unit and a second filter unit. The controller is configured to control the filtration unit and to thereby individually operate the plurality of filter units in two states including a filtration state and an oxidation state. When one of the plurality of filter units is operating in the filtration state another of the plurality of filter units is operating in the oxidation state.
System and method for maintaining, monitoring and/or improving air quality and purity in at least one room or environment
A system and method for maintaining, monitoring and improving air quality and purity in a room or environment, such as a hospital room or operating room.
HEPA air filtration with an air handling device
A HEPA/VOC air handling system having a HEPA air filtration unit, an air handling unit, a fresh air sensor system, a return air sensor system, an air handling air sensor, and a controller.
Mobile filter system and method
Systems and methods are provided for mobile treatment of an exhaust stream. A treatment assembly including an inlet. A coupling is configured to releasably couple the inlet with an outlet of a stationary processing facility that produces an exhaust stream. The treatment assembly receives the exhaust stream in an input stream, treats at least one constituent of the input stream, and produces a treated exhaust. The treatment assembly is decouplable from the stationary processing facility and transportable to various locations.
Combination Humidifier / Dehumidifier with Common Water Containment and Outdoor Air Intake
A humidifier/dehumidifier device is disclosed herein. The humidifier and dehumidifier both, respectively, evaporate water from and condense water into a shared (same) water storage container. The device is fitted with an air intake and at least one air outtake. In embodiments of the technology, one or more of the air intakes receives air from outdoors. One or both of an indoor and/or the outdoor intake is used to receive air based on a determination that an indoor and outdoor humidity and temperature is most efficient to achieve a desired indoor humidity or temperature.
AIR QUALITY MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM
An air quality system includes an air precleaner, a filter identification component, and a control module. The air precleaner has a precleaner housing and a filter disposed inside the precleaner housing. The filter identification component is positioned within the precleaner housing at a first position and is mounted on the filter. The control module is positioned within the precleaner housing at a second position and is configured to emit an electrical field and communicate with the filter identification component via the emitted electrical field.
AIR CLEANER
There is provided an air cleaner configured to be disposed inside a vehicle body frame, the air cleaner including: an air cleaner case in which an intake chamber is formed; an intake air temperature sensor configured to detect an intake air temperature in the intake chamber; an inlet tube configured to take in air to the intake chamber; and an outlet tube configured to send out air from the intake chamber. The outlet tube has an upstream portion protruding into the intake chamber, and the upstream portion of the outlet tube has a peripheral wall formed with a through hole.
Uniformly expandable air filter
The present disclosure relates to air filters. More particularly, it relates to air filters including pleated filter media that can be uniformly expanded and contracted. In some embodiments, the air filters are adjustably sized air filter systems. In some embodiments, the air filters can be used in a window opening.
FRAME FOR COLLAPSIBLE AND FOLDABLE PLEATED DISPOSABLE AIR FILTER WITH DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR AND COMMUNICATION CAPABILITY
A frame for a foldable and disposable air filter media is disclosed. The frame has a frame base and a frame cover having a size to overlap the air filter media. The frame cover is attached to the frame base by hinges allowing movement of the frame cover between an open position and a closed latched position. The closed frame holds the air filter media between the frame base and frame cover when in the closed position. The frame base includes an air flow monitoring system with an air pressure differential sensor to determine when the filter needs to be replaced. The frame also has capability to hold additional sensors for monitoring environmental conditions. A processor and memory enable collection and storage of sensed data. A communication module on the frame communicates air filter media change requirement to external devices including hand-held devices or a cloud server.
Self-Cleaning Air Filter System
A method of operating a cleaning process on a filter in a vehicle air intake includes passing air through the filter from an upstream side to a downstream side, and providing an exhaust duct having an inlet end adjacent the upstream side of the filter and an outlet end adjacent a cooling fan or other air-extraction device of the vehicle arranged to draw air through the exhaust duct from the inlet end to the outlet end. In a periodic cleaning subroutine, the rotational speed of the fan is increased from a first speed to a second speed, while a pulse of pressurized fluid is applied to a downstream side of the filter. The exhaust duct carries away material dislodged from the upstream side of the filter by the applied pulse, and the rotational speed of the fan is reduced to its original level.
