More Information
Summary:The invention describes a fuel filter (10) for fuel, in particular diesel fuel, of an internal combustion engine in particular of a motor vehicle, and a filter element (36). A housing (12) of the fuel filter (10) has at least one fuel inlet (26) for fuel to be cleaned, at least one fuel outlet (18) for cleaned fuel, and at least one water outlet (30) for water separated off from the fuel. In the housing (12) there is arranged the filter element (36) which sealingly separates the fuel inlet (26) from the fuel outlet (18). The filter element (36) has a filter medium (38) which is in the form of a hollow body and which, for the filtering of the fuel, can be traversed by flow from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside. A coalescence medium (58), in the form of a hollow body, for separating off water contained in the fuel is arranged downstream of the filter medium (38) as viewed in the flow path (78) of the fuel, is arranged surrounding said filter medium or is arranged in the interior (45)
