Abstract: A filter system is provided with a filter housing provided with a fluid inlet for introduction of a fluid into the filter housing. A fluid outlet for discharge of the fluid from the filter housing is provided. A filter element is removably received in the filter housing, wherein the filter element has a positioning and sealing section which positions and seals the filter element in relation to the filter housing. Elastically deformable snap elements connect the filter housing and the fluid outlet with form fit to each other. The positioning and sealing section rests radially at the elastically deformable snap elements. A filter element for such a filter system is provided.

Abstract: A filter assembly for an air filter includes a filter element and a sealing member. The filter element has a filter medium and includes an inflow side, an outflow side, and a filter axis extending therethrough from the inflow side to the outflow side. The sealing member surrounds a peripheral edge of the inflow side of the filter element. The sealing member includes an edge protecting portion and a sealing portion. The edge protecting portion includes a side portion extending in a first direction from the peripheral edge of the inflow side along a portion of a side of the filter element. The sealing portion depends from the edge protecting portion and extends axially farther than the side portion of the edge protecting portion in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The sealing portion is adapted to engage a housing of the air filter.
