Abstract

The present invention relates to a device at washing apparatus for washing objects, preferably spray guns, with a washing liquid, preferably a solvent. The washing apparatus (1, 2, 3 or 3A) has at least one wash chamber (5) in which the object (4) is located for washing and at least one first container (B1) for collecting impure washing liquid from the wash chamber (5). The washing apparatus (1, 2, 3 or 3A) further comprises a distilling device (8) for distillation of impure washing liquid and obtaining pure washing liquid. This distilling device (8) includes a third container (B3) in which impure washing liquid is vaporized. Means are provided to see to that the volume (V1) of impure washing liquid which at the most or as a maximum can be brought to flow from said first container (B1) to said third container (B3) is equal to or less than the volume (V3) for washing liquid in said third container (B3) in order to prevent said third container (B3) from located overfull (FIG. 1).
