An electrostatic precipitator includes an ionisation unit (1) with electrodes (11,12) to charge oily particles in an air flow and downstream a particle precipitating unit (2) for entrapping the charged particles in the air flow from the ionisation unit (1) by means of an electrostatic field produced between a plurality of adjacent and alternately charged electrode plates (21,22). Scrapers (4) being mounted between adjacent plates (21,22) for removing deposits from the plates (21,22) with a collecting unit (3) located underneath the precipitating unit (2) for collecting the deposits. The scrapers are attached to arms (42) which swing in an arc over the surface of the plates driven by oscillating shaft 41. <IMAGE> |
