Abstract: A filter container arrangement which permits ease of positioning, installation and maintenance within limited space allocable to such a device in applications such as a boat. The head plug being easily removably insertable to provide a large opening for removal and replacement of the filter element after which the head plug may be easily reinserted and the container sealed. The input and output mechanisms, mounted on the port plug, being non-incrementally rotatably and longitudinally adjustable to facilitate alignment of the input and output mechanisms with the input and output sources. A plurality of pressure monitor assembles which may incorporate a bleed valve for each of the input and output sides of the filter are mounted in the head plug to allow the user to determine the status of the filter element without opening the filter container.
