Abstract

A filtration system (1) has a filtration unit (2) with at least one filter element (4) for filtration of a fluid. The at least one filter element (4) has a main flow direction (C) for the fluid. The filtration unit (2) is configured to tilt the at least one filter element (4) around a tilting axis (B) to change an orientation of the main flow direction (C). A main unit (3) is fluidly connectable to the filtration unit (2) and includes a supply unit (18) configured to supply the fluid to the at least one filter element (4). A control unit is configured to control supplying and/or evacuating the fluid to/from the at least one filter element (4) and to control tilting of the at least one filter element (4) around the tilting axis (B).
