ABSTRACT:
A fuel filter assembly includes a housing (12) with a removable element (24) mounted therein. The housing has an inlet port (14) in direct fluid communication with a chamber (18). The outlet port (16) is in direct fluid communication with a central standpipe (22). The standpipe has a flow element (42) movable therein for controlling the condition of flow openings (36) in the standpipe. The element includes projections (88) for engaging recesses (90) in a cover (28) to selectively latch the element and cover together. The cover further includes a cover projection (82) for supporting a projection (78) on end cap (60) of the filter element, which opens flow into the standpipe only when the element is installed. When the element is removed, the flow element prevents the introduction of contaminants into the standpipe.
