See full text

A filter assembly (6) comprises a mounting support (11) defining a fluid outlet opening in the support, a filter device (9) extending across the opening, a fastening arrangement (12) operative to locate the filter device against a seat (11a) of the mounting support (11) so that the filter device (9) extends across the opening for filtering a fluid medium flowing through the outlet opening and the filter device (9), and a pre-filter device (8) secured, between the fastening arrangement (12) and the filter device (9), for pre-filtering fluid medium flowing successively through the upstream pre-filter (8) and downstream filter device (9). The pre-filter device (8) comprises a filter mounting plate (15) located upstream of the filter device (9) and held there by the fastening arrangement (12), relative to the fluid flow direction, and at least one filter element (16) removably mounted on the mounting plate (15).
