Abstract
A device for use in an electrostatic precipitator including an electrically insulating disk having a hole, which may be a venturi-shaped passage, for receiving a tie rod and an arrangement for supporting the tie rod in the hole so as to allow a fluid to flow through the hole between an inside surface of the hole and the tie rod. An air stream deflector may be mounted on the tie rod to provide further protection and help direct air flow. A recirculating flow system may also be provided to direct clean air through the venturi-shaped passage.
