Filtration system

A filtration system having filtrate and bypass modes comprising:

• a filter cartridge assembly including:
• a filter media;
• a sump;
• a filter cap;
• a fastener;
• and
• an ingress port and an egress port extending from said filter cap and in fluid communication with said filter media;
• a mounting bracket having left and right sides with respective left and right fluid ports, said fluid ports in fluid communication with a manifold and with external fluid lines, said mounting bracket supporting said filter cartridge assembly and said manifold;
• said manifold in fluid communication with said filter cartridge assembly and said mounting bracket fluid ports such that said manifold includes at least first and second apertures on a left side, and corresponding at least first and second apertures on a right side, said manifold left and right side first apertures in fluid communication with said filter cartridge assembly ingress and egress ports, respectively, and with said mounting bracket fluid ports when said filtration system is in said filtrate mode whereby fluid flow traverses through said filter cartridge assembly, and said manifold left and right second apertures are in fluid communication with said mounting bracket fluid ports when said filtration system is in said bypass mode whereby fluid flow bypasses said filter cartridge assembly.
