Abstract: A liquid filter housing which comprises a housing pot of two-layered configuration and a housing cover closing the housing pot. The housing pot and the housing cover mutually enclose an interior, wherein the inner layer of the housing pot facing the interior is manufactured from an electrically conductive plastic material and the outer layer of the housing pot facing away from the interior from an electrically insulating plastic material. An especially good mechanical connection is achieved between the two layers by the inner layer and the outer layer being connected to one another in a positive-locking manner.

Abstract: An in-tank fuel filter includes conductive features which provide a path to a grounded component of a motor vehicle to carry away static charges generated by passage of fuel through the filter. The filter includes a filter body and an in-situ molded conductive outlet fitting and runner assembly. The filter body includes a filtration layer having a plurality of conductive strands, threads or filaments which are in electrical contact with conductive runners which are molded onto the filter body and extend from the outlet fitting which is also electrically conductive. An electrically conductive path is thus provided from the conductive strands of the filter body, through the runners to the conductive outlet fitting which is attached to a conductive (typically metal) and grounded component of a fuel pump housing.

Abstract: An electrically conducting fuel filter mechanism for a fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine. The housing for the fuel filter has a conductive inner or core layer and at least one non-conductive outer layer positioned adjacent the fuel. The conductive layer is made from a non-conductive material with conductive fibers or powders mixed in it, while the non-conductive layer is free from the conductive materials. Any electrostatic or electrical charge buildup in the fuel filter, fuel or housing, will be dissipated through the inner non-conductive layer forming conductive paths directly to the conductive layer. This prevents any further charge buildup and pitting.
