Non-respiratory device ambient air filter (A filter designed to be installed in a non-respiratory device to clean the ambient air that passes through it to facilitate device operation/management. It is composed of tightly woven materials which remove particulates/impurities and, depending on how the device is installed, reduce the concentration of impurities to or from the air. It is typically used in devices that draw in ambient air for use as part of their function (e.g., to cool electrical motors, liquidize air as in a flotation therapy bed, wash/disinfect surgical instruments), or devices that, having used the air as a drive gas, exhaust it into a room via the filter. After installation, this device cannot be reused.)
