Abstract

A centrifugal air filter for an automotive system includes a plurality of single separators for setting an air flow passing therethrough in a turbulent motion and a separation area surrounding the plurality of single separators. The separation area receives particles from the air flow due to the centrifugal forces. A filter housing portion is located below a predefined or operation position for receiving particles from the air flow due to gravity, and an intake pipe is connected by an extraction line to a connecting pipe emerging on a filter housing and opening into the filter housing portion.
