The filter carrier (5, 6) is: laterally movable from a filter position; formed as drawer with a drawer guidance; limited with its lateral movement of the housings (3, 4); and exhibits a base drain in the flow area which lies in maintenance position within the housing. A carrier base exhibits a running level sloping to the base drain which protrudes at the filter carrier. A supporting grid edge is laterally formed for a filter mat. Diagonal edges with low-lying area lie over base drain. The housing is in the area of the filter carrier is divided in an interface level. An interlocking base is arranged with laminar-distributed passages under the filter carrier. The passages are enclosed by high-standing connecting pieces and exhibits narrow and vertically aligned wall passages. A transmitting room is arranged in the housings below the trickling base for filter material with larger wettable surface. The filter material consists of strongly arranged plastic bodies.
