Abstract
A cartridge group is for a filter assembly of a fuel filtration system. The cartridge group extends along an axis and includes a filter septum crossable in an axial direction by the fuel. The filter septum has an annular shape and defines at the axis a central cavity. A water separation and support device supporting the filter septum includes: i) a base element supporting the filter septum and presenting channels and/or holes through which the filtered fuel flows; ii) a tubular element extending into the central cavity presenting an outlet duct having a substantially annular cross-section delimited by an outer circumferential wall and an inner circumferential wall delimiting along the axis a through central passage; iii) a separator element crossable by the filtered fuel to be separated from the water. The separator element is housed on the base element and/or on the inner circumferential wall of the tubular element.
