Abstract:
1. A device for separating paint overspray from the overspray-laden booth exhaust air from paintshops having a) at least one separation surface, along which a booth exhaust air may be guided and which is connected electrically conductively with one pole of a high voltage source; b) an electrode apparatus arranged in the exhaust air which is associated with the separation surface and is connected with another pole of the high voltage source; c) means with which a separated paint overspray is conveyed away from the separation surface, wherein d) an electrically conductive separation liquid may be supplied to the separation surface, which separation liquid flows over the separation surface, such that a majority of at least solids passes from the booth exhaust air which is flowing past into the separation liquid and is conveyed away thereby; e) a plurality of separation units, each separation unit comprising two separation surfaces oriented in different directions, wherein a plurality of separation units are arranged such that two separation units in each case having one separation surface are opposite one another, and an electrode apparatus is in each case arranged between the opposite separation surfaces of two separation units, further wherein the separation surfaces are planar, and the separation liquid flows over the separation surface from an overflow channel formed on top of the device.
