    摘要: A filter apparatus and method utilize a filter element having a central winding frame and a length of fluted filter material wound about the frame with the flutes of the media oriented substantially longitudinally, to thereby provide for filtration of a flow of fluid passing axially through the filter element. The winding frame is a substantially open, truss-like structure, having a smooth outer periphery and an axially extending winding feature to facilitate pulling the media into intimate contact with the smooth outer periphery during fabrication of the filter element. A leading edge of the filter media is anchored to a leading edge of the frame by a length of tape.

    摘要: A filter apparatus and method utilize a filter element, defining a longitudinal axis and an axial end thereof, and having a central winding structure and a length of fluted filter material wound about the winding structure with the flutes of the media oriented to provide for filtration of fluid passing axially through the filter element. An edge of filter media defines the axial end of the filter element when the media is wound about the winding structure. An axial end of the winding structure is disposed adjacent the axial end of the filter element. A winding feature extends substantially axially outward from the axial end of the winding structure to a distal end of the winding feature. The filter media is wrapped about the winding structure such that the axial end of the filter element is disposed substantially flush with the distal end of the winding feature.

    摘要: A coalescing filter assembly including a coalescing filter element is provided. The coalescing filter assembly includes a base housing and a cover housing that together form a coalescing chamber. Disposed within the coalescing chamber is the coalescing filter element. The coalescing filter element includes a frame with a partition that separates an unfiltered side from a filtered side of the coalescing filter assembly. A port connects the unfiltered side to the filtered side through the partition. A coalescing tube including coalescing filter media is connected to the port. Unfiltered fluid that enters the coalescing filter assembly is passed through the coalescing filter media such that the contaminants are removed to create a filtered fluid. The filtered fluid exits the coalescing filter assembly at an outlet of the coalescing filter assembly.
