Abstract
An improved two-stage, high voltage inductor assembly. The inductor assembly is particularly adapted for use in a power supply circuit for an electrostatic precipitator. The inductor assembly includes a first inductor member defined by a plurality of turns of a continuous length of wire, and a second inductor member defined by a plurality of ferrite beads in end-to-end relationship. The assembly changes the electrical characteristics of power generated by a power supply to increase the output voltage, decrease ripple, and decrease the amount of power required. The assembly also reduces the arcing and sparking which normally occurs, improving the collection time and efficiency of the precipitator.
