A filter housing comprising

• a housing body comprising at least one openable installation opening, at least one inlet opening for a fluid to be cleaned, and at least one outlet opening for a cleaned fluid, at least one housing cover configured to close the at least one openable installation opening, and at least one fastening and/or locking device configured to secure the at least one housing cover in a closed position,
• wherein the housing body comprises an element receptacle configured to receive, through the at least one openable installation opening, at least one filter element, wherein the at least one filter element, when installed in the element receptacle, separates the at least one inlet opening from the at least one outlet opening,
• wherein the at least one openable installation opening is arranged in a transverse side of the housing body and the transverse side is lateral relative to a housing axis of the filter housing,
• wherein the housing body comprises at least one sealing surface for contact of at least one seal of the at least one filter element, wherein the at least one sealing surface surrounds the housing axis at least partially circumferentially, wherein at least one fastening and/or locking device has at least one U-shaped bracket element, with arm sections connected to a cross beam, and at least one eccentric element which is mounted rotatable with respect to a rotation axis on the cross beam,
• wherein free ends of the arm sections of the at least one bracket element each are connected to at least one corresponding bracket reception on opposite sides of the housing body such;
• that the at least one bracket element can pivot with respect to a bracket pivot axis and such that the cross beam with the at least one eccentric element is pivotable on the transverse side of the housing body with the at least one installation opening, and
• wherein in the closed position the at least one eccentric element is engaged with the at least one housing cover and the at least one bracket element grips around the housing cover such, that a part of the housing cover is located between the arm sections of the bracket element.
