Quick oil change filter and assembly

A filtration system, comprising:

• a filter housing including a cavity, an inlet, an outlet, and a drain, wherein the drain is in fluid communication with a channel that is formed between a first raised surface and a second raised surface;
• and
• a filter cartridge defining a longitudinal axis and being removably arranged within the cavity of the filter housing, the filter cartridge comprising:
• a bottom endplate including a bottom surface in engagement with both the first raised surface and the second raised surface so that fluid communication is inhibited through the channel and to the drain;
• and
• a filter media extending axially outwardly from the bottom endplate.

A filtration system, comprising:

• a filter housing including a cavity and a base, wherein the base of the filter housing defines an inlet and an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet;
• a drain defined in the base;
• a channel defined in the base and in fluid communication with the drain, the channel defining an outer diameter;
• a filter cartridge defining a longitudinal axis and being movable between an installed position within the cavity of the filter housing and an uninstalled position outside the cavity of the filter housing, in the installed position, a first flow path extends from the inlet into the filter cartridge and to the outlet, the filter cartridge comprising:
• a bottom endplate defining an outer diameter that is greater than the outer diameter of the channel so that, in the installed position, the bottom endplate covers the channel and prevents fluid flow through the channel to the drain;
• and
• a filter media extending axially outwardly from the bottom endplate;
• and
• a pressure bypass valve positioned in the base and movable, in response to a pressure within the filter cartridge reaching a threshold fluid pressure, to allow fluid flow along a flow path that extends through the filter housing and that bypasses the filter cartridge.
