A first filter is supported by the filter stand and is configured to be fluidly coupled to a first fluid flow path that provides pressurized hydraulic fluid to an auxiliary component of the heavy-duty machine, and a second filter is supported by the filter stand and is configured to be fluidly coupled to a second fluid flow path that receives pressurized hydraulic fluid from the auxiliary component of the heavy-duty machine. | 05-14-2015 |
20150343346 | SCAVENGE FILTER SYSTEM FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE - A scavenge filter system according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first scavenge pump stage positioned in a first flow path downstream of a first bearing compartment of a spool and a second scavenge pump stage positioned in a second flow path downstream of a second bearing compartment. The second bearing compartment houses a geared architecture mechanically coupled to the spool. A first scavenge filter fluidly couples the first scavenge pump stage to at least one oil reservoir. A second scavenge filter fluidly couples the second scavenge pump stage to the at least one oil reservoir. The first and second scavenge filters are separate and distinct. A method of filtering debris is also disclosed. | 12-03-2015 |
20150354242 | PRE-FILTER WATER SKIMMER - A pre-filter skimmer system that reduces the amount of debris and particles entering the water filter in order to increase the longevity of the water filter is disclosed. The pre-filter skimmer system includes a chamber including an inlet and an outlet, wherein the water enters via the inlet and exits via the outlet. The water enters a first collector that is positioned at least partially within the chamber, the first collector configured to capture particles of a first size carried by the water. From here, the water enters a second collector that is positioned downstream of the first collector, wherein the second collector is configured to capture particles of a second size smaller than the first size that passed through the first collector. | 12-10-2015 |
20150376028 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE PURIFICATION OF BIOLOGICALLY CONTAMINATED WATER - Disclosed herein are devices and methods for the purification of biologically contaminated water to make potable. In one embodiment, there is disclosed a low-pressure device comprising a housing having at least one inlet for receiving biologically contaminated water, and at least one outlet for removing purified water, wherein the housing contains a filter held in place by a seal sufficient to keep the biologically contaminated water separate from the purified water. Because of the novel permeability and purification properties of the disclosed carbon containing filter, the disclosed filter can remove virus, bacteria, cyst or any combination thereof, at water approaching velocity up to 5 cm/min. In various embodiments, the filter can have a flat planar design to be used in a flat pack application, or a more traditional tubular shape. | 12-31-2015 |
