Abstract
A separating device for removing water from a fuel oil/water mixture includes a cartridge comprising a filtering media and a sump. The cartridge is installed on a mounting head, which includes a pump and a pair of check valves to permit fluid to be drained from the sump by operation of the pump. A bypass passage permits fluid to bypass the check valves during normal operation of the device, but a plunger closes the bypass passage to permit operation of the pump to move fluid through the device.
