APPAREIL ET PROCÉDÉ DE FILTRATION DE PARTICULES LIQUIDES À PARTIR D'UN FLUX DE GAZ INSPIRÉ D'UN CIRCUIT DE RESPIRATION D'UN PATIENT AFFILIÉ À UN VENTILATEUR ET/OU SYSTÈME DE DISTRIBUTION D'OXYDE NITRIQUE
The present disclosure relates to a filter apparatus for filtering liquid from a gas, the apparatus having a first housing having a gas inlet and a gas outlet; a first filter media disposed in the first housing; a second filter media disposed in the housing; and a second housing forming a first collection basin disposed in the flow path between the first filter media and the second filter media, so that a path is defined for the gas flowing from the inlet, through the first filter media, past the collection basin, through the second filter media, and to the outlet. The present disclosure also relates to a method of passing a gas through a coalescing filter media and through a hydrophobic filter media.
