Abstract:
A diffuser assembly is provided, comprising a diffuser adapted to reside within a conduit, having an upper member mountable within the conduit and having a fluid inlet port, and a lower section having a diffuser screen. A resilient member is connected between the upper member and the lower section, wherein the resilient member enables the diffuser screen to vibrate relative to the upper member. A plurality of diffusing members is positioned below the resilient member, wherein the diffusing members are oriented relative to a central axis of the diffuser screen. A centralizing member is positioned above the diffuser screen having a diameter greater than the diffuser screen. The diffuser screen is a cylinder having a plurality of diffuser apertures formed therein, the cylinder including a bottom cap having a fluid exit port; and wherein the plurality of diffusing members extends substantially parallel to the central axis. A filter assembly is also provided having a resilient member connected between an upper member and a lower section, wherein the resilient member enables the filter screen to vibrate relative to the upper member.
