Filter element, filter element arrangement, and filter system with a filter element arrangement

A filter element comprising:

• a filter medium body;
• a seal device configured to radially seal the filter element in relation to a filter housing;
• wherein a flow direction of a fluid to be filtered through the filter medium body is positioned perpendicularly to a plane spanned by the seal device;
• wherein the seal device comprises at least one engagement means extending in an axial direction perpendicularly to the plane spanned by the seal device.

A filter element arrangement comprising:

• a first filter element comprising:
• a first filter medium body comprising a wall configured to be flowed through by a fluid to be purified in a radial direction in relation to a longitudinal axis of the first filter medium body, wherein the first filter medium body comprises oppositely positioned end faces;
• a first end plate and a second end plate arranged at the oppositely positioned end faces of the first filter medium body;
• at least one first engagement means extending in an axial direction parallel to the longitudinal axis and arranged at a first end face of the first end plate;
• a second filter element comprising:
• a second filter medium body;
• a seal device configured to radially seal the second filter element in relation to a filter housing;
• wherein a flow direction of a fluid to be filtered through the second filter medium body is positioned perpendicularly to a plane spanned by the seal device;
• wherein the seal device comprises at least one second engagement means extending in the axial direction perpendicularly to the plane spanned by the seal device;
• wherein the at least one first engagement means and the at least one second engagement means engage each other.
