Patent ID: 8764980

Claim:
A filtration system comprising: a filter tank; at least one outlet manifold, at least a portion of the outlet manifold positioned within the filter tank; at least three interleaved manifold assemblies coupled to the outlet manifold and positioned substantially adjacent within the filter tank so that at least one of the three interleaved manifold assemblies extends outwardly from the outlet manifold in one direction and at least one of the three interleaved manifold assemblies extends outwardly from the outlet manifold in a substantially opposite direction, each of the manifold assemblies including: at least one first non-linear cavity comprising three fluidly coupled regions including: a first region including at least one second aperture through a portion of the manifold assembly, the at least one second aperture fluidly connecting the at least one first non-linear cavity and the outlet manifold; and a third region including at least one first aperture through a portion of the manifold assembly, a second region angled relative to the first region and the third region angled relative to the second region defining the non-linearity of the at least one first non-linear cavity, at least one filter coupled to the manifold assembly so that the at least one first aperture fluidly connects the at least one filter to the at least one first non-linear cavity; and wherein the at least one filter extends generally inwardly towards the first region and the second region.
