Abstract

A device for cleaning of gases of electrically conductive particles, like soot and the like, in particular for cleaning of exhaust gases of fossil fuels, like exhaust gases of Diesel motors and the like, with a coagulator admitted by the gases is suggested, whereby for preventing the formation of a short circuit bridge between electrode and housing of coagulator caused by deposition of agglomerates the insulator which provides for an insulated conduct of electrode through housing is provided with a ring segment at the location where the electrode exits into the inside of the housing extending in axial direction from the insulator, whereby at least one preferable ring like annealing zone is provided thereon. Due to the prevailing temperature of about 450.degree. C. at annealing zone all depositing agglomerates are burned off.
