Abstract
An air scrubber has an electrically driven fan and a drum having a mat forming a closed circulating band spanning a support of the drum. The mat is electrically rotatably driven about a rotation axis, wherein a lower part of the drum is immersed in a water basin. The mat can be removed from the drum by a movement in the axial direction and pushed back on again by a movement in the axial direction.
Claims21
An air scrubber comprising a housing, an electrically driven ventilator, a water basin and a device configured for humidification with water from the water basin, wherein the device comprises an essentially horizontally mounted drum comprising an open-pore or absorbent structure which is electrically rotatably driven about a rotation axis wherein the respective lowest section of the drum is located below a defined minimum filling level of the water basin, wherein a support is provided on the drum and configured about the rotation axis and the open-pore or absorbent structure is configured as a wettable mat forming a closed circumferential band, said mat spanning the support on its external surface and being removable from the drum by pulling in an axial direction and being capable of being pushed onto the drum by a movement in the axial direction, wherein the air flow guidance for the air conveyed by the electrically driven ventilator passes through at least an upper section of the mat located above the water basin and the drum spanned by the mat.
