  • Patent number: 9757672
    Abstract: A coalescing filter assembly including a coalescing filter element is provided. The coalescing filter assembly includes a base housing and a cover housing that together form a coalescing chamber. Disposed within the coalescing chamber is the coalescing filter element. The coalescing filter element includes a frame with a partition that separates an unfiltered side from a filtered side of the coalescing filter assembly. A port connects the unfiltered side to the filtered side through the partition. A coalescing tube including coalescing filter media is connected to the port. Unfiltered fluid that enters the coalescing filter assembly is passed through the coalescing filter media such that the contaminants are removed to create a filtered fluid. The filtered fluid exits the coalescing filter assembly at an outlet of the coalescing filter assembly.

  • Patent number: 9724635
    Abstract: A fluted filter cartridge is provided. The fluted filter cartridge includes filter media including an inlet flow face and an outlet flow face. The inlet flow face and the outlet flow face are generally parallel. The filter cartridge includes a frame defining a central opening. The filter media is coupled to the frame such that fluid to be filtered may be directed through the central opening to the inlet flow face of the filter media. The frame includes a top surface. The inlet flow face of the filter media is located below the top surface of the frame.
