A filtration assembly filters diesel fuel used by a diesel engine and includes a filter element disposed within a housing. The housing includes an unfiltered fuel inlet and a filtered fuel outlet. The filter element disposed within the housing receives fuel from the fuel inlet. The filter element defines a peripheral wall sealably engaging filter media defining an unfiltered side and a filtered side of the filter element. The unfiltered side is enclosed with an impermeable barrier affixed to the peripheral wall and the filtered side is enclosed with a permeable water diffuser through which filtered fuel passes. A water separator assembly is disposed externally to the filter element receiving filtered fuel from the water diffuser. The water separator assembly includes water separator media preventing water from passing into the separator. The separator assembly interconnects to the filtered fuel outlet providing filtered, dewatered diesel fuel to the diesel engine.

Diesel fuel filter assembly

A water in fuel (WIF) sensor is disclosed, and comprises a main body defining a surface, a pair of electrical contacts, and a third electrical contact assembly. The pair of electrical contacts each have a first end portion that is located along the surface of the main body. A predetermined resistance flows between the electrical contacts when the first end portions of the electrical contacts are submerged in water. The third electrical contact assembly has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion of the third electrical contact assembly is located along the surface of the main body and the second end portion of the third electrical contact assembly is connectable to a ground.

A fuel filter comprises a bowl and a cover that form an enclosure, in which a filter element and a electrical device are concentrically arranged, a connector making it possible to connect the device to an external supply is carried by the bowl or by the cover. The electrical device is arranged in a dissipative shell and connected to the earth of the electrical device or of the connector. At least one part of the filter element is dissipative and at least one dissipative flexible contact is arranged between said dissipative part and the shell in order to provide a dissipative continuity between the filter element and the shell.
