Abstract

A tubular filter which is primarily intended for filtration of liquid flowing substantially radially towards the interior of the filter. The filter comprises two layers (10, 11) of mineral wool. An interior layer (10) has the fibres oriented substantially concentrically to the tube axis and an outer filter layer (11) of mineral wool has the fibres oriented substantially radially to the tube axis. The material of the tubular filter must be arranged so that its density increases from the outer portion of the tubular filter towards its inner portion.
