Abstract:
An inlet hood for use with a gas turbine or compressor air inlet system includes a frame and at least one pre-filter pivotably held by the frame in an operating position. The pre-filter is pivotable to a bypass position angled relative to the operating position. Methods of assembly and use are provided.
Abstract:
A filter element support assembly for mounting a filter element to a tube sheet includes a plurality of elongated rods; a first clamp having a through-hole; the first clamp defining a plurality of rod seats sized to receive a first end of one of the rods; a clamp rod extending through the through-hole in the first clamp; a second clamp having a through-hole; the clamp rod extending through the second clamp through-hole; the second clamp being mounted against the first clamp; the second clamp having radially projecting bumps mounted against the rods adjacent to the first clamp to hold the rods in the rod seats; a plurality of feet; each foot being secured to a second end of one of the rods; and a handle secured to an end of the clamp rod.

Abstract:
A tube sheet for the air intake for a gas turbine includes a non-planar frame arrangement with openings to receive filter elements. There can be inlet hoods that are pivotable relative to the tube sheet.
Abstract:
A yoke arrangement is provided including three leg assemblies connected together to releasably mount a filter assembly to a tube sheet. The filter assembly can include a filter element having a first end cap that acts as a spring. The filter assembly can have filter elements with end caps having built in end stops to prevent over-compression.
