AN INLET AIR FILTER DEVICE FOR A POWER PLANT

摘要

An inlet air filter device including: at least one passage for delivering an air mass from an inlet section to an outlet section of the inlet air filter device, a water separator in the at least one passage for separating water in the air mass, the water separator positioned between the inlet section and the outlet section, a bypass element movable between a first open position in which the air mass is forced to cross the water separator and a second closed position in which the air mass flows from the inlet to the outlet section without crossing the water separator; a shutter element which is actuatable to co-operate with the bypass element for isolating the water separator from the air mass when the bypass element is in the second closed position
