A rigid discharge electrode (2) intended for use in an electrostatic precipitator which, in addition to the discharge electrode, also includes one or more collector electrodes. A voltage source is provided for supplying energy to the discharge and collector electrodes, so as to create therebetween a high d.c. voltage and an electric field, causing dust to be separated from a dust-laden medium passing between the electrodes, this separated dust settling primarily on the collector electrodes. The discharge electrode comprises a rod-like member (10) having attached therealong a plurality of electrode parts (17,18) presenting one or more discharge tips. The electrode parts extend transversely to the longitudinal axis of the rod-like member and project beyond the outer defining surfaces thereof. The rod-like member (10) presents two mutually opposite and mutually parallel surfaces (19,19'), and elonagated electrode parts (17,18) presenting discharge tips (17a,17b) are attached to or fitted on these surfaces.

Rigid discharge electrode

An electrode holding arrangement (11,12,13,14,15) forming part of an electrostatic percipitator and intended for supporting a plurality of discharge electrodes (2). In addition to the discharge electrodes (2) the precipitator also incorporates one or more collector electrodes (25), and a voltage source for supplying energy to the discharge and collector electrodes so as to create therebetween a high D.C. voltage which influences dust carried in a dust-laden medium passing between the discharge and collector electrodes in a manner to separate dust from the medium, this dust falling primarily on the collector electrodes. Respective discharge electrodes comprise a rod-like flexurily rigid member having attached thereto, or formed integrally therewith electrode parts which present discharge tips. A predetermined number of discharge electrodes (2) are attached at their upper end parts (2a) to a common, elongated, horizontallly extending electrode holding device (11). The electrode holding device (11) is arranged to co-act with a carrier element (12,13) via means (14,15,16) which permit horizontal, or substantially horizontal movement of the electrode holding device (11), this movement being effected with the aid of a percussion mechanism (17) arranged to deliver a horizontally directed imapct force to the electrode holding device (11).
