ABSTRACT:
An interlocking dual filter includes a first filter element having a filter media enclosed by a frame and a sealing gasket disposed around the frame. The frame of the first filter element has a depending flange which defines a space for receiving a second filter element having a different filter media. The flange includes a plurality of recesses which form a first latching arrangement. The first recesses are aligned with latching tabs which extend laterally from the frame of the second filter element so that when the second filter element is placed within the frame, the second filter element latches with the first filter element. In accordance with one embodiment, the filter media of the first and second filter elements are different so that the filter assembly may be customized to accommodate various air stream conditions and utilizations.
