Abstract:
In general, techniques are described for filter media monitoring within a filtration system. The filter media monitoring techniques described herein include, for example, direct contact with the filter media, e.g., a sensor may be located inside a boundary defined by a surface of the filter media, or indirect contact with the filter media, e.g., a sensor may be located outside the boundary defined by the surface of the filter media such that the sensor does not make direct physical contact with the filter media being monitored.

Claim (Index 12):
A filtration system comprising:\n a filter housing positioned along a flow path conveying a fluid, the filter housing containing a filter media to filter the fluid; a filter sensor comprising an antenna and a controller, wherein the controller is configured to drive an electrical signal through the antenna to generate an electromagnetic signal configured to form an electromagnetic field through at least a portion of the filter media and near-field couple the antenna to at least a portion of the filter media, and wherein the controller is configured detect a characteristic of the antenna influenced by the near-field coupling with the filter media contained within the filter housing and, responsive to the detected characteristic, determine a remaining filter capacity of the filter media.
