A deaerating device is provided for a drive component in a motor vehicle. The deaerating device has an access line, a membrane deaerator, which includes a deaerating membrane, and an discharge air side. The deaerating device is designed to fluidically connect the interior of a drive component to the area surrounding the drive component. The deaerating membrane is arranged downstream of the access line and upstream of the discharge air side in a planned flow direction from the drive component into the area surrounding the drive component. The access line has an aerosol trap which has a labyrinth element for accumulating liquid on at least one wall of the labyrinth element, and the aerosol trap is designed as a separate component with respect to the access line and the membrane deaerator.

A filter housing includes a container with a surrounding wall defining an open interior volume; the container having an access opening in communication with the interior volume;) a filter element in the interior volume; the filter element having an inlet face and outlet face and oriented for filtering gas by gas flow through the inlet face and out through the outlet face; a lid removably mounted on the container to cover the access opening; and a gas inlet and gas outlet in at least one of the container and lid; the gas inlet and gas outlet being co- planar. The gas inlet and the filter element are arranged such that inlet gas turns at least 90° to flow from the gas inlet to the inlet face of the filter element.

A filter housing includes a container holding a filter element for filtering gas in the container. A lid is removably mounted on the container. A seal arrangement is between the lid and container to form a releasable seal. The seal arrangement has a container gasket and a lid gasket which are offset from each other. They can include rigid projections that are pressed into the opposing gasket.

A water separator includes an outer annular passage extending along a central longitudinal axis of water separator to direct an airflow along a first direction, and an inner annular passage located radially inboard of the outer annular passage and coaxial with the outer annular passage to direct the airflow along a second direction. A coalescer is located along the outer annular passage to coalesce water in the airflow. A water collector is located along the inner annular passage to collect the water. An airflow outlet is located downstream of the water collector through which the airflow exits the water separator.

The utility vehicle includes a body; a frame that supports the body; an on-board device that is mounted on the frame and requires outside air; and an air intake conduit that is connected to the on-board device. An air intake port of the air intake conduit that sucks in outside air faces a center side of the utility vehicle.

The fluid line segment can have a body having an inlet, an outlet, and a gas path extending between the inlet and the outlet, a containment cavity extending between the gas path and a cavity bottom, the containment cavity in fluid communication with the gas path, a projection protruding from the cavity bottom of the containment cavity towards the gas path, an orifice defined in the projection, and an evacuation passage extending from the orifice, across the projection and leading outside the body, the evacuation passage being in fluid communication with the containment cavity and the gas path via the orifice.

A pressure tank condensation separator having an interior chamber forming a downflow path on a first side and an upflow path on a second side passing through horizontally positioned shelves; each shelf having at least one passageway positioned to cause a tortuous air path wherein moisture is separated and deposited on each shelf. The shelves are sloped, leading to drain holes for directing moisture collected to a purge valve. The removal of moisture is most beneficial to clean radar sensors, LIDAR and video cameras used on autonomous vehicles.
