Abstract
A water separating device of a filter element for separating water from a liquid hydrocarbon has a coalescing medium in the from of a hollow body and designed to coalesce water droplets of the liquid hydrocarbon passing through the coalescing medium in a flow direction of the liquid hydrocarbon. A hydrophobic separating medium in the form of a hollow body and permeable for the liquid hydrocarbon is provided. The hydrophobic separating medium is arranged in a flow direction of the liquid hydrocarbon downstream of the coalescing medium and separates water droplets of the liquid hydrocarbon from the liquid hydrocarbon. At least one precipitation gap is formed between the coalescing medium and the separating medium.
