Zusammenfassung:A removable filter cartridge includes a filter housing containing a filter, a sealing valve coupled to an open end of the filter housing and configured to removably couple the removable filter cartridge to a filter head. The sealing valve has an open position and a closed position that seals the filter housing, and is configured to maintain a seal of the filter housing while uncoupled from the filter head. A sealing valve includes a first end to be removably coupled to a filter head and a second end to be coupled to a filter housing to form a removable filter cartridge. A method of retrofitting a filter housing includes removing the filter housing from a filter head, coupling a sealing valve to the filter housing to form a removable filter cartridge, and removably coupling the removable filter cartridge to the filter head.
