Abstract

A gas flow regulator disposed within a gas flow path and having integral baffling means thereon to deflect such a gas flow transversely of the direction of the gas flow in a manner to provide a uniform gas distribution where there is a change in cross-sectional areas of the gas flow path. Furthermore, the regulator of the present invention includes valve means thereon to further regulate the gas flow. The gas flow regulator is particularly applicable to dust collecting assemblies, such as electrostatic precipitators.
