The present invention relates to a filter system () for removing impurities from a fluid, having a filter housing () enclosing a housing interior (), and having at least one cylindrical filter body () provided in the filter housing (), said filter body separating an uncleaned space () from a clean space () in the housing interior (). In order to be able to more simply adapt the filter system () to different filtration levels, each filter body () has at least two cylindrical filter elements () that are designed as identical components and that are axially attached to one another.

Filter system

The invention relates to a backflush device () for a filter system () for removing impurities from a fluid, the backflush device () serving to backflush a filter body () in the filter system separating the clean side () from the inlet side (), and comprising at least one backflush nozzle () for applying a rinse medium to the filter body (), said nozzle comprising at least one opening () through which the rinse medium flows in a flow direction () during backflushing and exits the backflush nozzle (). In order to improve the effectiveness of the backflushing, the at least one opening is designed as a slit opening () extending transverse to the flow direction () in a straight line having a constant cross-sectional profile () comprising a nozzle segment () expanding the flow direction ().
