It is provided a device for detecting an accumulation amount of particulates. The device has a filter for trapping particulates from a gas containing the particulates, a container 5 for containing the filter, an upstream pipe 3 provided on the upstream side of the container 5 to lead the gas into the container 5, a downstream pipe 4 provided on the downstream side of the container 5 to lead the gas after passed through the filter, a transmitting antenna 10 provided within the downstream pipe 4 to transmit an electromagnetic wave having a frequency of 30 GHz or more but not exceeding 10 THz, and a receiving antenna 11 provided within the upstream pipe 3 to receive the electromagnetic wave. An amount of the particulates trapped in the filter is detected based on an intensity of the electromagnetic wave received by the receiving antenna 11.
