Abstract
A filter element for filtering fluid has a filter medium surrounding an inner cavity extending axially in the filter element. An axially extending sealing connecting piece is arranged at an axial end of the filter element. The sealing connecting piece has an opening fluidically connecting the inner cavity to a fluid channel of a filter housing and also has a seal holder structure. A double concentric seal is arranged at the sealing connecting piece and closes a drainage channel of the filter housing. The double concentric seal has radially inner and radially outer sealing elements. One of the sealing elements has an elastically deformable sealing lip that extends away from the sealing connecting piece radially and axially toward the filter medium and can be pressed against a sidewall of the drainage channel of the filter housing. The other sealing element is an oil seal arranged in the seal holder structure.
