Abstract: A replaceable filter element includes an element material extending between first and second end caps of the replaceable filter element, and a support tube extending on an outside of the element material between the first and second end caps. The second end cap has, on a top face thereof, a flat contact surface which is radially delimited on an outside by a peripheral rim projecting axially towards the first end cap. The peripheral rim has on an inside a latching notch, to which a latching lug of the support tube is configured to be latched, to axially secure the support tube to the second end cap.

Abstract: A filter device has a filter housing (1), in which a replaceable filter element (7) is accommodated. The filter housing has a cover part (2), wherein the element material (9) of the filter element (7) extends between two end caps (13, 14) of the filter element. The filter housing (1) is formed as an outlet pipe (3). The element material and the outlet pipe extend between both end caps (13, 14).

Abstract: A filter apparatus, in particular for the filtration of hydraulic media, includes a filter housing (4) and a filter element (30) arranged in the filter housing, Air present in the filter housing (4) can be removed from the housing by suction by a degassing device (52) that generates a negative pressure.

Abstract: The instant invention provides a method for disseminating information concerning memorial or other commemorative services over a system of computers accessible via the Internet.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling the operation of a dust collector are provided. The method and apparatus include a remote control for controlling at least one of the speed and time of operation for a dust collector. The remote control includes a transmitter for transmitting signals for controlling the dust collector and a receiver for receiving the signals transmitted from the transmitter and controlling the dust collector accordingly.

Abstract: An ice detector for providing a signal indicating ice formation includes a longitudinally extending probe protruding into an airflow. One or more surface roughness features on surfaces of the probe improve ice detection. Surface roughness features on the probe include ice accreting edges at a distal end of the probe and features arranged on a side surface of the probe which cause the airflow to increase in turbulence.

Abstract: An ice detector for providing a signal indicating ice formation includes a probe protruding into an airflow. The probe extends into the airflow from a strut. The strut has one or more features which allow the probe to accrete ice at a higher temperature than would conventionally be possible. Strut features can include a notch formed therein in an upwind direction relative to the probe, and a curved surface adjacent a point of extension of the probe from the strut.
