A liquid filtering equipment has a body and a lid which respectively include an inlet and an outlet for the fluid to be filtered. A filter element is supported within the body between the inlet and the outlet. The body and lid together may be mounted in a support which also forms part of the equipment and which includes inlet and outlet passages with which the inlet and outlet in the body and lid respectively align. The body and lid may thus be removed as a unit from the support without disturbing the filter element.
