  • Dynamic particle separation for use in HVAC systems
    Patent number: 12370480
    Abstract: An air filter system for use as original equipment or conventional filter replacement in a building ventilation system includes multiple helical particle separator elements in a parallel array, each element configured to remove particles from a respective portion of contaminated inflowing air. The outflows from the separator elements are combined into a common clean air outflow which is delivered to the building ventilation system. A common waste receptable collects particles removed by the separator elements and is cooperatively connected to a scavenger air system that draws air through the array and the receptable and relocates them to a desired location. The separator element array may be housed in a filter system containing the main system fan arrangement that is configured to draw or force the airflow through the multiple particle separators.
