Claims21
An apparatus, comprising a filter that removes contaminants from air as the air enters an equipment rack and discharges the contaminants into the air as the air exits the equipment rack, the filter further comprising a motor.
The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the motor moves the permeable substrate based on the amount of contaminants removed from the air.
A system, comprising:
- an equipment rack;
- and
- a filter, coupled to the equipment rack, that removes contaminants from air as the air enters the equipment rack and discharges the contaminants into the air as the air exits the equipment rack.
A system, comprising:
- a means for housing equipment;
- and
- a means for removing contaminants from air as the air enters the means for housing equipment and discharging the contaminants into the air as the air exits the means for housing equipment.
A system, comprising:
- an equipment rack comprising an air intake;
- a filter coupled to the equipment rack, the filter comprising a permeable substrate, the permeable substrate removing contaminants from air as the air enters the air intake;
- and
- a motor coupled to the filter, the motor moving the permeable substrate across the air intake;
- wherein the permeable substrate is collected after moving across the air intake and the permeable substrate is replaced after the permeable substrate is collected.
