  • Filters and filter assemblies with bypass seal
    Patent number: 7833299
    Abstract: A filter element having a frame defining an interior volume and having exterior surfaces. Filter media is mounted within the frame so as to allow fluid to enter an upstream side of the media and exit a downstream side of the media. At least one component of a multi-component filter frame seal, the at least one component being positioned on an outer surface of the frame and substantially circumscribing the filter frame at a location selected to align to a complementary component of the multi-component filter frame seal. The complementary component is provided separately from the filter element.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 3, 2005
    Date of Patent: November 16, 2010
    Assignee: StrionAir, Inc.
    Inventors: Bruce Dawson, Thaddeus Ptak, Rex Coppom
  • Electrically enhanced air filtration with improved efficacy
    Patent number: 7513933
    Abstract: A filter assembly particularly useful in electronically enhanced air cleaning systems including a fibrous filter media. A conductive electrode is affixed to the fibrous filter media, so that the conductive electrode makes physical contact to the fibrous filter media in a plurality of substantially planar locations. The conductive electrode is coupled to a potential that enables neutralizing charge that accumulates on the filter media during operation to be removed thereby maintaining high efficiency.
