摘要

A particle collector (36,50) includes a housing (52) within an internal chamber having inlet and outlet ports (57,58). The housing can comprise two joined-together housing members (55,56). A collector element (66) is disposed in the internal chamber and includes a particulate passage (76) extending axially therethrough. A gas passageway is disposed within the chamber between a housing inside diameter and a collector element outside diameter, and is sized to produce a minimal pressure drop through the particle collector (36,50). The collector element (66) is connected to the housing. A collection port is (82) connected with the collector element (66) and extends from the particulate passage (76) to a location outside of the internal chamber for removing collected particulate matter from within the housing (52) when the particle collector is placed into operation within an exhaust gas flow stream.
