Abstract: A fuel dispenser filter for filtering fuel is adapted to be connected to a support in a fuel distribution system. The filter comprises a housing including an adaptor constructed and arranged to be secured to the support and a bowl operatively connected to the adaptor. A stud/spacer is secured in the adaptor. The stud/spacer defines a centrally disposed outlet flow passage and outwardly disposed inlet flow passages. A sleeve member is movably supported in the adaptor between the stud/spacer and the adaptor. The sleeve member is constructed and arranged to open and close the fuel flow through the inlet flow passages. A filter assembly including filter media is provided in the bowl for filtering the fuel passing through the filter. When the bowl is firmly engaged with the adaptor, the sleeve member is moved to open position to permit the flow of fuel through the filter and when the bowl is removed from the adaptor, the sleeve member is moved to a closed position to stop the flow of fuel.

Abstract: A fuel filter for a fuel dispensing pump comprises a shell having a closed end and an open end. A plate is fixed in the open end of the shell. The plate has one or more fuel inlet openings and a centrally located fuel outlet opening. A rigid annular pervious core in located within the shell. A water absorbing media is disposed about the core. A first end cap closes the inner end of the core and the water absorbing media. A second end cap closes the outer end of the core and water absorbing media. The second end cap has a central opening there through. A valve cylinder cup is secured to the second end cap and extends within the central opening in the core. The valve cylinder cup has at least one opening in the side wall thereof. A valve piston is slidably disposed and guided in the valve cylinder cup and movable to open and close the openings in the sidewall of the valve cylinder cup.
