Abstract: A filter assembly of the Vee-panel type including a filter frame and a plurality of complementary pairs of replaceable and interchangeable filter panels slidably mounted within the frame and defining a plurality of adjacent Vees with the apexes of the Vees being disposed adjacent the air outlet end of the assembly. The filter frame defines a plurality of rectangular perimeter panel retention surfaces adjacent the sides of the filter panels for retaining the panels in place and forming an airtight perimeter seal therewith. A compressible gasket is disposed about each of the panel retention surfaces. The extended ends of each of the filter panels is provided with an end cap secured thereto. Each end cap defines a pair of identically configured cam surfaces thereon proximate the extended ends thereof.

Abstract: A filter assembly of the Vee-panel type comprising a filter frame and a plurality of complementary pairs of replaceable filter panels slidably disposed within the frame and defining a plurality of adjacent Vee's with the apexes of the Vee's being disposed adjacent the air outlet end of the assembly. The filter frame defines a plurality of rectangular perimeter panel retention surfaces thereon adjacent the sides of the filter panels for retaining the panels in place and forming an air tight perimeter seal therewith. A compressible gasket is disposed about each of the panel retention surfaces.
