Abstract

A filter device has a filter housing and a plate-shaped filter element that is arranged in the filter housing. The filter element has oppositely positioned lateral surfaces that form an inflow side for a fluid to be filtered and an outflow side for the clean fluid. A first clean fluid outflow opening is introduced into the filter housing for discharging the clean fluid. An outflow pipe passes through the filter element for discharging the clean fluid through a second clean fluid outflow opening provided at the outflow pipe. The first clean fluid outflow opening is arranged at a spacing relative to the outflow pipe.
