Abstract: A suction device may include a suction channel, a first valve, and a second valve. The suction channel may include a first suction portion and a second suction portion disposed opposite one another in a transverse direction. The first valve may be arranged in the first suction portion. The first valve may include a first valve seat and a moveable first valve body. The second valve may be arranged in the second suction portion. The second valve may include a second valve seat and a moveable second valve body. When a transverse acceleration is equal to or greater than a predefined transverse acceleration, one of the first valve and the second valve may close while the other one of the first valve and the second valve remains open. When the transverse acceleration is less than the predefined transverse acceleration, the first valve and the second valve may both be open.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a filter device, e.g., a filter cartridge, for cleaning coolant water for an internal combustion engine. The filter device includes a filter housing defining a housing interior space through which coolant water can flow. An untreated water inlet and a clean water outlet are arranged in the filter housing. A water-permeable separating device divides the housing interior space into a first filtration zone and into a second filtration zone. A first packing material containing activated charcoal for removing dirt particles from the coolant water is present in the first filtration zone, and a second packing material containing hydronium cations and hydroxide anions for demineralizing the coolant water is present in the second filtration zone.

Abstract: A fluid filter may include a filter housing in which a ring filter element is arranged and an electric heating device configured to prevent freezing of a fluid to be filtered. The electric heating device may be structured as a separate assembly and include a heating housing. The heating housing may be structured substantially complementarily to an external geometry of the filter housing such that the heating device is at least one of slidable and clipable onto the filter housing. The heating housing may at least partially enclose the filter housing when at least one of slid and clipped onto the filter housing.
