Abstract

The invention relates to a filter for fluids in conduits, consisting of: a tubular filter housing (1); a filtering basket (9) that is coaxial with the filter housing (1) and that is positioned to rotate; a stationary flushing connection (16) for removing substances that have been retained by the filtering basket (9), said connection covering successive parts of the filtering basket (9) and being connected to means for removing the substances. To achieve a simple construction for the filter, increased operational safety for the drive components and the rotational mounting of the filtering basket (9), in conjunction with reduced production and maintenance costs, a fluid-proof drum motor (3) is coaxial with the filter housing (1) and the filtering basket (9) is fixed to the drum (4) of said motor.
