Air flow system for the charging conductor in an electrostatic painting system

摘要

An electrostatic painting system has a charged conductor (22) extending along the path of travel of article carriers (11) through a coating zone (15, 16). A plenum (33) with a perforate wall (25) extends along the length of the charged conductor and is connected with a blower (30). A unidirectional flow of air is directed across the charged conductor.
