摘要

Disclosed is an air filtration and filter mounting system. The system includes a clean air plenum having a wall with an inlet opening therein. A pair of substantially parallel tension bars are connected to and extend perpendicular to the plenum wall spaced on opposite sides of the plenum inlet. A gimbal plate is slidingly mounted on the tension bars. A filter element is positioned between the tension bars and between the gimbal plate and the plenum wall about the inlet opening. A clamping bar is fixedly connected to the tension bars outward of the gimbal plate and a screw is threadedly engaged with the clamping bar to urge the gimbal plate into clamping engagement with the filter element.
