To prevent the dirt present in the fuel from depositing on the filter material so that the resistance to the flow through the filter material rises continuously overtime, a fuel system for a vehicle is provided in such a way that the throughflow resistance of the fuel filter remain almost constant. This is achieved as a result of the formation of a deposition tank in a housing of the fuel filter under the filter material located in a housing, in which the dirt from the fuel is deposited and as a result of a pressure accumulator in the fuel system causes the fuel stored in pressure accumulator to rinse the fuel filter after the engine has been switched off.

A cooling circuit includes a valve device (1, 1', 1') for a separate heat exchanger (42), especially of an internal combustion engine (48). To achieve a combined pressure limitation and pipe or hose break valve, a valve body (6, 35, 50), upon reaching a coolant throughput for maximum heat transfer in heat exchangers (42) located downstream, is actuated as a function of delivery pressure into an engaged position with a valve seat (5, 51). A throttle passage (7, 36, 52) maintains a coolant throughput that corresponds to maximum heat transfer. In the event of a pipe or hose break, the valve body (6, 35, 50) serving as part of a pipe or hose break is locked in a closed position.
