A filter apparatus for removing particulates from exhaust gases of engines has a housing (10) containing a manifold (13) to receive exhaust gases directly from an inlet opening (12), and the manifold (13) has a series of exhaust openings (23) spaced along its length to discharge exhaust gases outwardly between a pair of filter elements (28, 29). The filter elements (28, 29) trap the particulates and release effectively particulate-free gases to the atmosphere in response to pressure changes in the exhaust gases between the filter elements (28, 29). |
