Abstract
A filter device is for the filtration of gases contaminated with particles, such as welding gases, in particular produced in manufacturing processes using 3D printers in a production room (52). The filter device has a filter circuit having at least one filter element (55, 56), which filters the particles from the gas. At least a part of those particles get from this filter element (55, 56) into an assignable receptacle (59). The particles within a back-flushing process get into the respective receptacle (59). At least one further filter circuit has at least one further filter element (NF1, NF2 that filters a fluid having the particles obtained at the back-flushing process.
