Definitions
- Precipitating filters while highly efficient, produce large numbers of ions and generate ozone. They also consume distinct quantities of current at high voltage, thereby requiring substantial power supplies.
- a replaceable "cartridge” may include: 1) two dielectric fiber pads;
- Figure 9 is a similar embodiment to that of Figure 8 except that the central ionizing grid is attached to and carried by one of the fibrous pads. High voltage to the grid is supplied via a conducting strip connected to a high voltage power supply.
- Figure 10 is a similar arrangement to Figure 9 except that the ionizing grid is sandwiched between the fibrous pads that are bonded together enclosing a portion of the ionizing grid. The conducting strip is exposed between portions of the pads that are not bonded together.
- Figure 11 is an arrangement where the ionizing grid and conducting strip are fully contained between the fibrous pads which are bonded together to enclose the grid and strip.
