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 filter device is provided with a filter housing and a filter element arranged in the filter housing. The filter element is provided with an annular filter medium body that has an inflow side. The filter housing has a dirt collecting region in flow communication with the inflow side of the annular filter medium body. The dirt collecting region has an annular circumferentially extending configuration. A flow-tight separation element is arranged at or adjacent to the annular filter medium body. The dirt collecting region adjoins the flow-tight separation element. An inflow region is positioned at the inflow side of the annular filter medium body and immediately adjoins the dirt collecting region. The dirt collecting region has a radial extension relative to a longitudinal axis of the annular filter medium body, and the radial extension of the dirt collecting region is larger than a radial extension of the inflow region.

Filter device, in particular for gas filtration

A filter housing for a filter device is provided with an inlet housing arranged upstream of a filter element. The inlet housing has an inflow opening for introducing a fluid to be purified into the filter housing. The inlet housing has an overflow opening at an outlet of the inlet housing, wherein the overflow opening conveys the fluid to be purified to the filter element. The inlet housing has an inlet channel disposed between the inflow opening and the overflow opening. The inlet channel has an intermediately positioned channel section located between the inflow opening and the overflow opening, wherein a cross-sectional shape of the intermediately positioned channel section differs from a cross-sectional shape of the inflow opening and from a cross-sectional shape of the overflow opening.

Filter housing for a filter device

A filter device is provided with a filter housing provided with a housing wall and with a filter element arranged in the filter housing. The filter element has an annular filter medium body and an end disk arranged at an end face of the filter medium body. The filter medium body surrounds in a ring shape an inwardly positioned flow space for receiving a fluid to be filtered. An annular circumferentially extending flow path is positioned between an outer contour of the end disk and an inner side of the housing wall of the filter housing. Guide vanes project into the annular circumferentially extending flow path. The guide vanes are fastened at the end disk at the filter element. A cover is arranged at the end disk at the filter element and covers a portion of the annular circumferentially extending flow path.

Filter device comprising a filter element in a filter housing

A thermally sterilizable fluid filter () for concentrating substances contained in a fluid by way of micro-, nano- or ultrafiltration of the fluid, particularly for concentrating a pharmaceutical precursor and/or intermediate, in particular a vaccine, in a fluid. The fluid filter has a filter housing with a fluid inlet, a retentate outlet and a permeate outlet. A filter cartridge is arranged in the filter housing () and has a filter medium of a ceramic material and/or a ceramic composite material. The filter cartridge is held with axial play on the filter housing.

Thermally sterilizable fluid filter and use of the thermally sterilizable fluid filter

A filter module is provided with a filter housing provided with an inflow opening. A filter element with an annular filter medium body with an elongate cross-sectional shape is arranged inside the filter housing. A flow path is defined between the inflow opening of the filter housing and an inflow side of the filter medium body. A swirl device is arranged in the flow path and impresses a swirl onto an incoming fluid. The swirl device is a part separate from an outer wall of the filter housing. The swirl device is arranged axially upstream of the inflow side of the filter medium body. The swirl device is provided with a displacement body arranged inside the filter housing adjacent to the inflow opening. The displacement body forms a flow guiding element.

Filter module comprising a filter element in a filter housing

A housing module of a fluid treatment module of a fluid system is provided with a fluid housing with inlet and outlet for fluid. The fluid housing has a housing part with a receiving chamber for a fluid treatment component for treatment of fluid and an installation opening, closable by a housing closure part, for installation of the fluid treatment component in the receiving chamber. A housing connecting section is provided for connecting the housing part and the housing closure part to each other. The housing module has an externally positioned support structure that surrounds the housing part like a sleeve and has a reinforcement region that extends about the housing connecting section. The support structure has a fastening region for attachment of the housing module on a holding component of the fluid system. The connection of the housing part with the housing closure part is a direct connection.

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.

Filter element, in particular for gas filtration

A fluid housing of a fluid treatment system of a fluid system has a housing part of plastic material that is provided with a receiving chamber for accommodating a fluid treatment component; an installation opening, closable by a closure housing part, for installing the fluid treatment component in the receiving chamber; and a housing connecting section to connect the housing part to the closure housing part. A housing fastening section is provided with which the fluid housing can be fastened to a holding component of the fluid system. An insert is at least partially introduced into the plastic material of the housing part. The insert is provided with a reinforcement region extending with sections thereof in the housing connecting section and is further provided with fastening region extending with sections thereof in the housing fastening section. A fluid treatment system with such a fluid housing is provided.
