ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an inertial filter which utilizes differential fluid velocity of a fluid flowing through fluid passageways to remove particulate matter entrained in the fluid. The filter has a plurality of baffle plates located within a housing. Each baffle plate has a medial deflector plate from which extends a pair of lateral deflector plates. The plates have flanges and adjacent plates are cooperable in use to form a fluid passageway through the filter. The orientation and configuration of the flanges and plates form at least two areas where fluid flowing between the plates is alternately speeded up and slowed down. As the fluid flows centrifugal force flings particulate matter entrained in this fluid outwardly where it collects on the plates, flows operatively downwardly along the plates, is collected in a channel towards the operative bottom of the filter and is removed.
