Abstract: The present invention relates to a filtering assembly for filtering at least one fluid flowing in particular in a hydraulic motor or device, comprising:—a filter body which comprises a vessel and a cover which are configured to engage with one another in order to enable the filter body to close,—a tube, in particular a central tube, inside the filter body extending along a longitudinal axis (X),—a removable filter cartridge which is housed in the filter body and includes an upper end plate, a lower end plate and a filter medium which extends between the upper end plate and the lower end plate, the filter cartridge having a tubular opening for surrounding the tube, characterized in that the cover has a circular rib which is formed such as to project into an inner space of the filter body, and in that the upper end plate has a circular edge which is designed to sealingly engage radially and inwardly with said circular rib of the cover.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a filtration assembly for filtering a fluid flowing in particular in a motor or a hydraulic equipment, comprising: —a filter body having a tank and a cover, the filter body being intended to house a filter cartridge, —at least one locking system for the filter body, being movable between a locking position and an unlocking position, wherein said filtration assembly has means for holding the locking system (5) in the unlocking position.

Abstract: A filter cartridge having an endplate formed of polyurethane having a varying hardness is described. A first portion of the endplate is harder than a second portion of the endplate. The first portion of the endplate helps support the filter media of the filter element and maintain the shape of the filter element. The second, softer portion creates a seal between the filter element and a filter housing when the filter element is installed in the filter housing. The first portion and separate portions may be formed from different types of polyurethane or from the same type of polyurethane having a varying composition as a function of the radial distance of the endplate.

Abstract: Radial seal filter assemblies and filter cartridges are described. According to various embodiments, a filter includes a housing that extends along an axis between first and second axial ends. A primary filter element is disposed in the housing and axially extends between first and second axial ends that respectively are adjacent the first and second axial ends of the housing, the primary filter element has a hollow interior and a first axial length. A secondary filter element is disposed in the hollow interior of the primary filter element, the secondary filter element having a second axial length, the second axial length being longer than the first axial length of the primary filter element. The filter further includes an end cap disposed on the second axial end of the primary filter element.

Abstract: A protective device is provided for an air filter that is substantially cylindrical and is intended to equip in particular a generating set. The filter is intended to be press fitted to a duct of said set. The protective device includes at least two portions that are securable radially on the filter in order to form a protective case surrounding the filter.

Abstract: According to one representative embodiment, a fluid storage device for storing a first fluid in a second fluid storage container fillable with a second fluid includes a first fluid storage container, a first fluid inlet coupled to the first fluid storage container, and a first fluid outlet coupled to the first fluid storage container. The first fluid storage container is flexible. The first fluid inlet is communicable in fluid receiving communication with a first fluid source. The first fluid in the first fluid storage container is caused to drain from the first fluid outlet based on at least one of a first fluid level, a first fluid storage container pressure, a second fluid storage container pressure, the second fluid storage container filling with the second fluid, the first fluid outlet being opened for first fluid egress, and a first fluid outlet pressure.
