Coalescing filter with interface and orientation features

A coalescing filter comprising:

• a filter media;
• a central core defining a central cavity, the central core positioned within the filter media;
• a first end cap coupled to the filter media at a first end, the first end cap having an oval shaped ridge on an opposing side from the central core and filter media;
• and
• a second end cap coupled to the filter media at a second opposing end from the first end cap, wherein the oval shaped ridge of the first end cap is configured to orient the second end cap within a housing that is configured to receive the coalescing filter therein.

A coalescing filter comprising:

• a filter media;
• a central core defining a central cavity, the central core positioned within the filter media;
• a first end cap coupled to the filter media at a first end, the first end cap having a plurality of ridges on an opposing side from the central core and filter media;
• a coupling assembly attached to and extending outward from the opposing side of the first end cap, the coupling assembly is configured to engage a housing to position the coalescing filter within the housing;
• and
• a second end cap coupled to the filter media at a second opposing end from the first end cap, wherein at least some of the plurality of ridges are configured to be visible around the coupling assembly to aid in orienting the second end cap within the housing.
