An HVAC system for a work vehicle having an operator cab includes a first chamber having an for receiving airflow exterior of the cab. The inlet is adjacent to a first source for moving air for use independent of the HVAC system, the inlet arranged to cause a first change of direction of airflow inside the first chamber. The first chamber resulting in both a first air pressure reduction and a first reduction of airflow velocity while inside the first chamber sufficient to reduce an amount of particles entrained in the airflow while the particles are within the first chamber. A second chamber in fluid communication with the first chamber and configured to cause both a second change of direction and a third change of direction of airflow while inside of the second chamber prior to reaching a third chamber for mixing air flow with recirculated air from the cab.

1. An HVAC system for a work vehicle having an operator cab comprising: a first chamber having an inlet for receiving a flow of air exterior of the cab and an outlet, the inlet adjacent to a first source for moving air for use independent of the HVAC system, the inlet arranged to cause a first change of direction of airflow inside the first chamber, the first chamber resulting in both a first air pressure reduction and a first reduction of airflow velocity while inside the first chamber sufficient to reduce an amount of particles entrained in the airflow while the particles are within the first chamber;a conduit in fluid communication between the outlet of the first chamber and an inlet of a second chamber, the second chamber configured to cause both a second change of direction and a third change of direction of airflow while inside of the second chamber;a third chamber configured to receive airflow from an outlet of the second chamber and to receive recirculated air from within the cab, the recirculated air brought into selective thermal heat exchange with a heat exchanger of the HVAC system by a second source for moving air, the recirculated air then entering the third chamber via an opening formed in the third chamber, the recirculated air and the airflow entering the third chamber from the second chamber mixing together; anda filter positioned interior of the cab and in fluid communication with the third chamber to remove at least a portion of remaining particles entrained in the mixed airflow. 2. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the first source for moving air is associated with cooling a motor of the work vehicle. 3. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the first chamber is located substantially exterior of the work vehicle. 4. The HVAC system of claim 3, wherein the first chamber comprises an aperture to remove particles from the first chamber. 5. The HVAC system of claim 4, wherein the opening in the third chamber comprises louvers facing away from an operator. 6. The HVAC system of claim 5, wherein the louvers face aft of the operator. 7. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the filter is positioned beneath the third chamber. 8. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the second change of direction of the airflow is about 90 degrees. 9. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the third change of direction of the airflow is about 90 degrees. 10. The HVAC system of claim 1, wherein the first chamber is removable from exterior of the cab. 11.

The work vehicle of claim 11, wherein the first source for moving air is associated with cooling a motor of the work vehicle. 13. The work vehicle of claim 11, wherein the first chamber is located substantially exterior of the work vehicle. 14. The work vehicle of claim 13, wherein the first chamber comprises an aperture to remove particles from the first chamber. 15. The work vehicle of claim 14, wherein the opening in the third chamber comprises louvers facing away from an operator. 16. The work vehicle of claim 15, wherein the louvers face aft of the operator. 17. The work vehicle of claim 11, wherein the filter is positioned beneath the third chamber. 18. The work vehicle of claim 11, wherein the second change of direction of the airflow is about 90 degrees. 19. The work vehicle of claim 11, wherein the third change of direction of the airflow is about 90 degrees. 20. A work vehicle comprising: a motor secured to a frame for selectably moving the frame;a operator cab supported by the frame;an HVAC system for a work vehicle having an operator cab comprising: a first chamber having an inlet for receiving a flow of air exterior of the cab and an outlet, the inlet adjacent to a first source for moving air for use independent of the HVAC system, the inlet arranged to cause a first change of direction of airflow inside the first chamber, the first chamber resulting in both a first air pressure reduction and a first reduction of air velocity while inside the first chamber sufficient to reduce an amount of particles entrained in the airflow while the particles are within the first chamber;a conduit in fluid communication between the outlet of the first chamber and an inlet of a second chamber, the second chamber configured to cause both a second change of direction of airflow of about 90 degrees and a third change of direction of airflow of about 90 degrees while inside of the second chamber;a third chamber configured to receive airflow from an outlet of the second chamber and to receive recirculated air from within the cab, the recirculated air brought into selective thermal heat exchange with a heat exchanger of the HVAC system by a second source for moving air, the recirculated air then entering the third chamber via an opening formed in the third chamber, the opening in the third chamber comprises louvers facing away from an operator, the recirculated air and the airflow entering the third chamber from the second chamber mixing together; anda filter positioned interior of the cab and in fluid communication with the third chamber to remove at least a portion of remaining particles entrained in the mixed airflow.
