ABSTRACT:
A fuel filtering apparatus for use in a gas turbine fuel system is provided. The fuel filtering apparatus includes a removable filter housing which receives and maintains a filter element therein to filter a fuel flow when the filter housing is positioned on the apparatus. The fuel filtering apparatus is also provided with a casing which is installed in-line in a portion of the fuel system. The removable filter housing alleviates the need for removal of the casing when a filter element is inserted and removed for cleaning and other routine maintenance. The fuel filtering apparatus also reduces pressure disruption within the fuel system.
