A dust separator which has an inlet enclosure having an inlet for dust-laden gas, an outlet enclosure having side walls and connected to a pipe for discharging the dust-freed gas, a separating wall separating the inlet and outlet enclosures, several elongated filtering elements disposed in the inlet enclosure, each element having a longitudinal axis and an opening at the end emerging into the outlet enclosure, and at least one nozzle having an orifice which has an axis for blowing counter flow declogging gas into the outlet enclosure and into the filtering elements. The axis of the nozzle orifice is directed transversely to the axes of the filtering elements and obliquely to the surface of one of the side walls of the outlet enclosure.
