ABSTRACT:
An elongated fluid filtering assembly includes an elongated hollow tubular housing and an elongated hollow filter element. The housing defines an elongated flow chamber, a pair of open end ports at opposite ends of the chamber, and an open side port at a side of the chamber between and spaced from the end ports. The filter element is removably inserted into the housing flow chamber through one end port and extends between the housing end ports. The filter element is pervious to fluid flow and impervious to solids, has opposite end openings, and defines an inner flow passage extending between its end openings and within the housing flow chamber. The assembly also has components adjacent the housing end ports which support the filter element in the housing with its opposite end openings in flow communication with the housing end ports and the filter element and housing defining between them an outer annular flow passage in the housing flow chamber in concentric relation to and coextensive with the inner flow passage of the filter element. The outer and inner annular flow passages extend past and in opposite directions from the housing side port and between the housing end ports and together provide a path for fluid flow in either direction across the filter element between the outer and inner annular flow passages and between the side port and at least a selected one of the end ports of the housing.
