Vacuum filtration system for a dry bulk trailer and method of using the same
PendingUS20250025820A1Loading/unloading vehicle arrangmentTransportation itemsInterior spaceThermodynamics
A filtration system for a dry bulk tank trailer includes a filter canister containing a filter media in the interior volume of the filter canister. The filter media divides the interior volume of the filter canister into a dusty air side and a clean air side of the interior volume on opposite sides of the filter media. A dusty air line operatively communicates the dusty air side of the interior volume with the dry bulk tank. A fitting operatively communicates with the clean air side of the interior volume. The fitting is operable to selectively communicate a vacuum pressure and a positive pressure to the clean air side of the interior volume.
