Abstract: A filter element may include a tubular element, first and second end caps, each associated with an opposite end of the tubular element, filter media positioned around the tubular element and between the first and second end caps, a biasing element associated with the tubular element, and a retainer element positioned at a first end of the tubular element. The retainer element may include a retainer aperture including a central circular portion and two opposite lateral slots extending from opposite sides of the central circular portion, and two arcuate shoulder segments extending between opposite sides of the two opposite lateral slots. A full tab may extend a first axial distance from a bottom surface of one of the two arcuate shoulder segments at a circumferential position in between the two opposite lateral slots, and a partial tab may extend a second axial distance less than the first axial distance from a bottom surface of the other of the two arcuate shoulder segments at a circumferential position on an opposite side of the lateral slots from the full tab.

Abstract: A system for detecting a pressure differential between an inlet and an outlet of a filter element may include a housing configured to be associated with a filter element coupled to a filter base of a filter assembly. The system may further include a first sensor configured to provide signals indicative of pressure associated with at least one of an inlet port and an outlet port of the filter element. The system may further include a controller configured to receive the signals from the first sensor, and determine a pressure differential between the inlet port and the outlet port of the filter element based on the signals. The system may be configured such that a flow path of fluid flowing between the inlet port and the outlet port does not include flowing through a portion of the filter base.
