摘要:
A high efficiency, high capacity fluid filter element that is suitable for meeting stringent cleanliness requirements has multiple filter layers. These layers include a cellulose and glass fiber first layer, a water repellant polybutylene terepthalate meltblown second layer, and a protective third layer providing structural support to the first and second layers. By way of an appropriate production procedure, the first, second, and third layers are laminated to define the filter element.
摘要:
A fuel filter, such as a filter for filtering gasoline or diesel fuel to be supplied to an internal combustion engine, includes an annular main filter element through which fluid to be filtered can pass radially, and a supplemental fluid processing element disposed within the main filter element to which fluid discharged from the main filter element passes. The filter also has end caps, between which opposite ends of both the main filter element and the supplemental fluid processing element are disposed, and to which the opposite ends of both the main filter element and the supplemental fluid processing element are secured. Fluid is discharged from a central volume of the filter through one of the end caps.
摘要:
A fluid filter providing several degrees of filtering is designed to be receivable in a filter container that is closable by a cover. The filter itself includes both an annular main filter element, through which fluid to be filtered can pass radially to undergo primary filtration, and a supplemental filter element, to which fluid discharged from the main filter element passes to provide supplemental filtration additional to the primary filtration. The main filter element, the supplemental filter element, or both may be oblong or circular in cross section. At least one of a pair of end caps disposed on opposed ends of the main filter element carries the supplemental filter element as well as one end of the main filter element. That end cap may or may not be permanently secured to the one filter element end.
