Abstract
For purifying dust-containing air, particularly in underground mining and tunnel construction, a dust separator,in the form of a rotary washer,is proposed. The drive,of said rotary washer,is equipped with a gear unit,in order to enable long-term operation with a straight characteristic. Furthermore, disposed downstream of the fan impeller,is a special separating element,in the form of a demister,which is disposed so as to be suspended approximately horizontally in the air stream. Clogging of the demister,is therefore effectively prevented and so uniform and reliable operation is guaranteed. The demister,together with its associated jetwashing device,may be swivelled by a positioning motor,into an, in each case, optimum position.
