A disposable filter assembly is provided with a leakproof connection between the filter element and the filter housing to prevent external leakage, and a direct fluid connection between the interior of the filter element and one fluid line, thereby ensuring that unfiltered fluid will not by-pass the filter element and contaminate the downstream fluid line. In the preferred embodiment the fluid line connection and the filter element-housing connection are formed as an integral part of one filter element end cap. A vent also is provided to release air from the assembly when the assembly is installed and put on-stream. |
