Abstract

The invention relates to an emission electrode (10) for use in an electrostatic precipitator, in combination with one or more collector electrodes, wherein the emission electrode includes a carrier bar (11) and a plurality of electrode elements (12). One end-part of respective electrode elements (12) is connected to the peripheral surface of the carrier bar (11) in the absence of a gap therebetween, and in a manner such that the electrode elements will project from the peripheral surface of the carrier bar in a number of mutually different directions. The free-end or tip of respective electrode elements has a pyramidal or conical configuration (13) and the shank-part (15) of the electrode elements is advantageously screw-threaded. The end-parts of the carrier bar (11) are provided with means (16) for attachment of the emission electrode to holder devices. The inventive emission electrode is highly efficient and can be manufactured and handled in a very rational and effective manner.
