Coating device, in particular rotary atomizer

Abstract

The disclosure relates to a coating device, in particular a rotary atomizer, for coating components, in particular motor vehicle body components, with an electrostatic coating agent charging system, so that the coating device comprises a high-voltage area and an electrically grounded area. Furthermore, the coating device comprises a sensor in the high-voltage area, in particular as a rotational speed sensor for measuring the rotational speed of the rotary atomizer, and an optical waveguide for transmitting a measurement signal of the sensor from the high-voltage area to the electrically grounded area, wherein the optical waveguide enables a potential separation between the high-voltage area and the electrically grounded area. The disclosure provides that the sensor is a magnetic sensor.
