ELECTROSTATIC ATOMIZER

摘要

An electrostatic atomizer comprising a discharge electrode, a counter electrode facing the discharge electrode, a cooling means for condensing moisture from the surrounding air onto the discharge electrode, and a high voltage source for applying a high voltage to between the discharge electrode and the counter electrode, wherein condensed water is charged by the application of a high voltage to thereby discharge charged fine water particles from a discharge end at the discharge electrode tip end. The atomizer is further provided with a controller for constantly discharging charged fine water particles . The controller monitors a discharge current running between the both electrodes, controls the cooling means so that the discharge current has a specified value, and regulates the atomized amount of charged fine water particles atomized from the discharge electrode.
