Abstract
A filter comprising a casing and a plurality of filtering elements stacked between a first cover and a second cover, wherein the first cover rests against the casing in a stacking direction of the filtering elements, wherein the filter further comprises a cover backing coupled to the second cover by a return system configured to return the second cover towards the first cover, wherein the cover backing rests against the casing in the stacking direction and the second cover separates a zone of the casing adapted to receive filtered fluid from a zone of the casing adapted to receive fluid to filter.

A filter comprising a casing and a plurality of filtering elements stacked between a first cover and a second cover, wherein the first cover rests against the casing in a stacking direction of the filtering elements, wherein the filter further comprises a cover backing coupled to the second cover by a return system configured to return the second cover towards the first cover, wherein the cover backing rests against the casing in the stacking direction and the second cover separates a zone of the casing adapted to receive filtered fluid from a zone of the casing adapted to receive fluid to filter.
A method for assembling a filter, comprising:
- stacking a plurality of filtering elements between a first cover and a second cover;
- connecting a transmission part to the first cover;
- coupling a cover backing to the second cover via a return system, wherein the return system is configured to return the second cover towards the first cover;
- prestressing the return system and fastening the cover backing to the transmission part;
- mounting the plurality of filtering elements in a casing such that the first cover rests against the casing in a stacking direction of the filtering elements;
- and
- at least partially detaching the cover backing from the transmission part, such that the cover backing rests against the casing in the stacking direction and that the second cover separates a zone of the casing adapted to receive filtered fluid from a zone of the casing adapted to receive fluid to filter.
