Abstract: A filter device including at least one filter element adapted to filter a raw fluid and having a raw fluid side and a clean fluid side, the filter element having a clean fluid outlet arranged on the clean fluid side and extending in a first plane, at least one clean fluid collecting channel into which the clean fluid outlet opens; at least one compressed-air cleaning-off device adapted to generate a pressure pulse for cleaning-off foreign matter adhering to the filter element and to conduct the same through the clean fluid outlet to the filter element, wherein the compressed-air cleaning-off device is adapted to conduct the pressure pulse at least approximately along the first plane to the clean fluid outlet, wherein the compressed-air cleaning-off device comprises a compressed-air supply channel operationally coupled to a clean fluid collecting channel outlet and adapted to charge the clean fluid collecting channel with pressure pulses.

Abstract: A filter element including a throughflow-porous filter body extending between a head end and a longitudinally opposite foot end, wherein a head structure is formed at the head end of the filter element, the head structure having at least one seal configured to seal the filter element with respect to a filter element holder, wherein the head structure has a sidewall extending basically in the longitudinal direction and the seal is formed on the basically longitudinally extending sidewall of the head structure of the filter element.
