An axial passage from an air turbine into the bell cup of the atomizer is provided with formations to improve the transport of cleaning fluid into the bell cup. An orifice directs a fan-shaped spray of cleaning fluid at the outer surface of the bell cup. The inner and outer surfaces of the bell cup are cleaned while the bell cup is rotating.
