A filter element useful for filtering intake air for internal combustion enginesincludes a first filter media separated by an air space from a second filter media. The second filter media has a greater air permeability than the first filter media, but is electrostically charged. As a result of this arrangement, the capacity of the filter element is enhanced because large particles are trapped by the first filter media and smaller particles are trapped by the second filter media. As a result, the filter element has a longer life because, for a given contaminant condition of an air stream, unacceptable clogging of the filter element takes longer.

Élément filtrant utile pour filtrer l'air d'admission de moteurs à combustion interne. Comprend un premier milieu filtrant séparé par une couche d'air du second milieu filtrant. Ce dernier milieu filtrant a une plus grande perméabilité à l'air que le premier milieu et porte une charge électrostatique. Cet arrangement améliore la capacité du premier élément filtrant parce que de plus grosses particules sont retenues par le premier milieu filtrant et que les particules plus petites sont capturées par le deuxième milieu. Par conséquent, l'élément filtrant a un cycle de vie plus long parce que, dans des conditions précises de contamination d'un flux d'air par des impuretés, il faut plus de temps pour que le filtre s'encrasse au point de ne plus être fonctionnel.
