An in-tank filter assembly for an industrial fluid reservoir tank includes a filter assembly mount with tank coupling elements to secure the assembly mount to a tank, and wherein the mount includes an inlet connection configured to be coupled to an inlet line of the tank; a bypass structure configured to selectively open allowing flow to flow around the filter element into the tank in bypass operation; and a disposable filter element including at least a top end cap and a bottom end cap with filter media extending between the top end cap and a lower end cap, wherein the filter assembly forms a bowl-less in tank return line filter having inside-out flow.

Return line in-tank filter assembly with disposable filter element

An in-tank filter assembly for an industrial fluid reservoir tank includes a two piece filter assembly mount comprising an upper filter mount and a lower tank extension member; an element and bypass plate; a bypass structure within the element and bypass plate; a filter element mount coupled to the element and bypass plate; the disposable filter element removably coupled to the filter element mount, wherein the filter assembly forms a bowl-less in tank return line filter having inside-out flow; and an inlet closing valve configured to selectively close off the inlet and biased toward a closed position, wherein the inlet closing valve is configured to automatically close off the inlet when the disposable filter element is removed from the filter element mount.
