Abstract: A separating device, particularly a spiral separator (10), separates impurities, particularly in the form of solids, from a gaseous medium flow, such as air. The medium can be fed to a spiral-shaped guiding device (42) that brings about an at least partial separation of the respective impurities from the medium flow. The guiding device (42) has a plurality of spiral arms (44) that delimit radially extending flow spaces (46) and that are arranged in an adjacent manner opposite to one another such that the medium flow is guided radially outwards.

Abstract: The invention relates to a separating device, in particular in the manner of a spiral separator (10), for the separation of impurities, particularly in the form of solids, from a gaseous medium flow, such as air, which can be fed to a spiral-shaped guiding device (42) and thus brings about an at least partial separation of the respective impurities from the medium flow. The invention is characterized in that the guiding device (42) has a plurality of spiral arms (44) which delimit radially extending flow spaces (46) and which are arranged in an adjacent manner opposite to one another such that the medium flow is guided radially outwards.
