Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a filter element that includes a frame and bag-type filter pockets which are connected to the frame. The filter pockets have an inflow side and an outflow side, wherein at least one opening is present on the inflow side for the inlet of a fluid to be filtered by the filter pockets. The interior of each of the filter pockets tapers in the direction of their respective outflow side. Fluid-guiding elements are provided on the inflow and/or the outflow side of the filter pockets. An efficient filter element in which the fluid to be filtered is effectively cleaned is therefore provided.
