A method and device for varying a d.c. voltage connected to an electrostatic dust separator so as to render more effective, in return for a low consumption of energy, the collection of dust on an electrode or electrodes incorporated in the dust separator. The d.c. voltage is set to a first level (basic level), said level having superimposed on it a number, in each case two or more, of voltage pulses forming a pulse group, with the consecutive pulse groups being separated from each other in a time sequence and supplied to electrodes incorporated in the dust separator. A pulse generating device is so arranged as to generate a number of pulses making up a pulse group, whereby the first pulse (21) in said pulse group is selected so as to exhibit an amplitude and/or a duration and/or a form such that, when the pulse is supplied to the dust separator, it will not cause flash-over but will produce an increase in the tendency to flash-over (20') of the dust separator, in conjunction with which the immediately following pulse (22) in the pulse group is selected so as to exhibit an amplitude and/or a duration and/or a form such that, when the pulse is supplied to the dust separator, it will not cause flash-over in spite of the increased tendency to flash-over (20') caused by the preceding pulse, and so on. |
