Abstract
A filter device used to filter medical anesthesia gases and other inhalable respiratory gases. The filter device has a ported housing, and a filter member within the housing. The filter member is a porous sheet that is transversely pleated and draped to define a peripheral foot of such porous sheet. The peripheral foot is sealed along its entire periphery to the housing. Two sets of intermeshing hangers are provided with both sets of the hangers being anchored to the housing and distortingly maintaining the porous sheet in such a pleated condition.
