  • Publication number: 20240042475
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for removing wet paint overspray from an outgoing air flow containing over-spray particles. The device separates wet paint over-spray from an over-spray particle contained in an exhaust air stream. The overspray particles in the exhaust air stream are formed during the painting at an application area of a painting installation. The device comprises of at least one separation apparatus for separating the over-spray from the exhaust air stream. The separation apparatus includes a regeneratable surface filter and the flow path of the exhaust air stream from the application area to a separating device having at least one narrowed area. The central direction of flow of the exhaust air stream remains essentially preserved in passing by the narrowed area.
