The invention addresses the problem of reducing the distance of the bearings of the wheel shaft from one another, in a centrifugal air separator of this type, preferably a separator with fines-and-air aspiration at both ends. According to the invention, the fan wheel is journal ed on a central, fixed axle which is held in the housing and machine frame by arms, struts or other such supports.
