A filter element analysis system for analyzing a filter element within a vehicle, the system including various filter sensors so as to provide information regarding various filter element parameters, a locator which configured provide vehicle position information such that conditions regarding the vehicle environment can be tracked and correlated to the location, as well as a means for transmitting information to a remote server for analysis and tracking of the filter element information with regard to environmental conditions such that a filter element status, remaining filter life, or particle load and replacement timeline can be calculated and updated so as to provide more accurate predictive models of the filter element conditions. As well as provide alerts regarding the need and scheduling of replacement or cleaning of a particular filter element.

Filter element analysis system and associated methods

A replaceable air filter element has a multilayer filter medium panel configured for mounting on a reusable exoskeleton support frame. The exoskeleton support frame is installable on a flow face of the filter medium panel and is provided with U-shaped locking members configured to detachably engage with and mount the filter medium panel. The exoskeleton support frame is configured to be reused such that only the filter medium panel is replaced, thereby reducing the environmental waste and making for a 'green' eco-friendly air filter element.

A replaceable air filter element is provided with fixation pockets configured to record corers or edges of reusable exoskeleton support frame. The exoskeleton support frame, The reusable exoskeleton support frame is adapted to detachably engage the fixation pockets to support the filter medium. The exoskeleton support frame of the filter element is configured to be reused such that only the filter medium is replaced, thereby reducing the environmental waste and making for a 'green' eco-friendly air filter element.
