Coaxial Full-Flow And Bypass Oil Filter Apparatus And Method
A fluid filter includes a first filter, a second filter coaxial with the first filter, an inlet adjacent the first and second filters, a first outlet adjacent the inlet, and a second outlet at a distal end from the inlet and the first outlet. Further, the first and second filters may be housed in a unitary canister or a canister that has a canister body coupled to a removable canister cap. A method of filtering fluid includes providing a cylindrical housing, inserting a first tubular filter into the housing, inserting a second tubular filter into the housing, coaxial with the first tubular filter, providing an inlet on the housing, and providing a first outlet and a second outlet on the housing wherein the second outlet is at a distal end from the first outlet.
