ABSTRACT:
A gas separating and venting filter is disclosed for separating gases and liquids and venting the gases in any position of the filter. A housing defines an interior chamber, with inlet and outlet means for the flow of liquid into and out of the chamber. A hydrophilic filter membrane extends along one major wall of the chamber, with longitudinally extending open-sided passageways in the one major wall facing the hydrophilic filter membrane and leading to the outlet means. The hydrophilic filter membrane is flexible for ballooning into the passageways in response to a build-up of pressure in the chamber to restrict and/or cut off the flow of liquid through the passageways. A hydrophobic filter membrane extends along substantially the entire length of an opposite major wall of the chamber between the inlet and outlet means for passing gas but not liquid therethrough. A plurality of spaced vent holes are formed in the opposite major wall for venting gas which has passed through the hydrophobic filter membrane.
