The present invention relates to a filter assembly in which a filter, having a plurality of micropores i.e. openings, which are open in a thickness direction thereof in a state of being extended horizontally or inclinedly with respect to a flow direction of a fluid containing solid foreign substances and have a tapered shape gradually narrowing from upstream ends to downstream ends thereof, is installed communicatively with an upstream end of a branch pipe interposed in a portion of a flow pipe through which the fluid containing the solid foreign substances flows so as to form, in conjunction with the flow pipe, a filtered flow path which passes through the filter and an unfiltered flow path which does not pass through the filter. Therefore, the problem can be solved.
