Abstract: An air filter includes a filter media, an end cap, a urethane outlet air seal, and a screen assembly. The end cap is secured to a first end of the filter media. The urethane outlet air seal is secured to a second, opposite end of the filter media. The screen assembly is secured to a central portion of the filter media between the first and second ends.

Abstract: An air filtration apparatus includes an airflow powerhead assembly including a fan assembly and a vane assembly, a filter assembly, and a separator chamber housing inside of which the filter assembly is disposed. The separator chamber housing has a chamber inlet at a first axial side and a clean air outlet at a second axial side of the separator chamber housing opposite the first axial side. The filter assembly has a first axial end adjacent the chamber inlet and a second axial end adjacent the clean air outlet. The separator chamber housing includes at least one debris ejection slot extension configured to eject debris from an inner space of the separator chamber housing. The filter assembly includes a debris catch tray disposed at the second axial end, the debris catch tray having a debris ejection slot aligned with the at least one debris ejection slot extension.

Abstract: A versatile compact air precleaner, air cleaning method and disposable air filter cartridge for air precleaner for separating heavier-than-air particulate debris from debris laden air to provide a clean airflow, wherein a flow path for air passing through a separator chamber of the air precleaner is retroflexed en route to the outlet. A plurality of independently rotatably adjustable housing sections of a housing provide utility with multiple clean air outlet configurations, freedom of direction of ejection of particulate debris from the ejector ports, different inlet configurations, mounting of the precleaner from different sides, accommodation of different sizes of filters, and different clean airflow rate capabilities. A separator chamber end section including the ejector ports is connected to the filter as a removable, disposable air filter cartridge to obviate ejector port clogging with change of filters.

Abstract: A powered air cleaning system (31) and a method of making the system are disclosed. The system comprises a flow path (22) extending through the system from an air inlet (4) to a clean air outlet (5). A motor-driven fan (24) located along the flow path draws particulate debris laden air into the inlet and rotates it about an axis (A-A) to form a rotating flow that stratifies the debris laden air with the heaviest particles in the outermost orbits of the rotating flow. An ejector port (8) is provided for ejecting particulate debris laden air from the stratified rotating flow in the system to the environment. An air filter (9) located within the rotating flow and across the flow path upstream of the outlet filters air from the innermost orbits of the stratified rotating flow. The system is formed of a plurality of components (2, 3) separately mountable in remote locations (32, 33) in a device to be supplied with clean air. The components are interconnected with an intermediate pipe assembly (34).
