Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9301874A1] A fuel filter and boost pump apparatus including a filter chamber (203), a fuel filter (247) on the inside of the chamber, and a fuel pump (201) on the outside of the chamber. The chamber has a bottom mounted remotely actuated discharge valve (265). The fuel pump is in fluid connection with the inlet of the fuel filter by means of valves (223, 309). When the fuel pump is not running, these valves cause the fuel flow to bypass the pump and directly enter the inlet of the filter. A water sensor (267) detects water within the filter chamber. The remotely actuated solenoid discharge valve is operated when the water sensor detects a critical level (269) of water in the chamber.
