Abstract
A bacteria filter for use in anesthesiology and respiratory care systems to filter fluid flow at a desired point in a system. The filter includes an enlarged non-conductive, transparent tubular housing having a passageway therethrough and tapering at one end to a reduced tip. A conductive connector is mounted to the reduced tip and a conductive end cap is affixed to the end of the housing distal from the reduced tip. The end cap has an opening therethrough terminating in a projecting connector. A filter element is retained in the housing and a conductive portion extends between the end cap and the conductive connector to provide a conductive pathway from end to end of the filter. The connector and the projecting end cap are adapted to be mounted within a fluid flow system to permit fluid communication with the interior of the housing so that fluid flow through the system passes in one end of the housing, through the filter element and out the other end of the housing.
