Abstract: A smart-home device may include a housing, a printed circuit board (PCB) inside the housing, an environmental sensor mounted to the PCB inside the housing, and a gasket that encloses the environmental sensor inside the housing to isolate the environmental sensor from an atmosphere inside of the housing while allowing an atmosphere outside of the housing to enter the gasket such that the environmental sensor can measure an aspect of the atmosphere outside of the housing.

Abstract: A compressor system includes an oil reservoir capable of producing a mixed air/oil flow of fluid via a breather port, as well as a cyclonic separator having an inlet annulus and a tapered section extending from the inlet annulus. The inlet annulus structured to swirl the mixed air/oil flow prior to moving toward a tapered internal section of the separator. A center post is positioned in the tapered internal section and includes a number of discs arranged along a length of the center post. The discs can be separate discs that are stacked upon one another to form the center post. The discs can include a skirt portion and a neck having one or more openings that permit a flow of at least air to enter into a central bore of the center post from the tapered internal section before exiting the separator.

Abstract: A centrifugal filter assembly useful to remove lubricant from a mixed flow exiting a breather of a lubricated compressor. The centrifugal filter assembly can include a stack of filter discs disposed in a housing. The housing can have a threaded opening to be fastened to the breather. A center support including a central shaft and arms are used to mount the discs. The discs can include flow guide and gap setting features. Mixed air can enter an inner hub of the filter stack and then progress in the space between filter discs until exiting the stack at a radially outer location. The mixed air can be received into the inner hub after first passing through a bearing used to support the center support, but other routes into the inner hub are also contemplated.
