The centrifugal filter comprises a rotatable travelling basket (5) disposed within a collector chamber (1). A machine body (2) which can be supported on a support (3) carries a bearing arrangement (8) for the hub (14) of the travelling basket (5). In the travelling basket (5) which partially comprises holes is present a filter element (20) in such a way that during the rotation of the travelling basket the liquid to be filtered can flow out through the filter element (20) and through these holes. For removing the filtrate, retained on the filter element and consisting of solid particles, a lifting device (22) is present which can be moved back and forth. The travelling basket (5) comprises a travelling basket neck (7) connected with the travelling basket hub (14), which neck is provided with passage openings which communicate at least partially with further passage openings disposed in the bottom portion of the machine body (2).
