2.1.44 COLLECTING SYSTEM ‘The ‘G" profiled collecting electrode is based on the concept of dimensional tail ‘The upper edge ofthe collecting plates are provided with hocks, which ate hung from support angles welded tothe rof structure (Fig93) The lower edge cf each pte has shock receving plate, which is securely guided by the shock bar arrangement, This results ina stable collecting system similar othe emiting system. ‘The collecting plates are made of 1.6-mm steel plate and shaped in one piece by roll forming. Rigidity ithe main purpose forthe special design of the collecting pte elges. In order to assure the most rigid constuction, aller collecting plates (10m) are connected ‘one another by transverse guides, thereby preventing any swinging tendencies, 2.1448 EMITTING SYSTEM ‘The emitting system isan important part of the precip ator. "The emiting framework is Thoroughly traced and forms a rigid bor-lke stuetue (Fig). The frame is assembled, adjusted and welded tits final position inside the casing, which makes it possible to obtain and ‘miniain highly acearae eleetrode spacing.
