Electric filter

Abstract

The invention relates to an electric filter which includes emission and separation systems, which are intended for separating particles from a gaseous, particle-containing medium passing through the electric filter, and a filter chamber (1) which surrounds the emission and separation systems and their peripheral devices, the filter chamber (1) having a top surface (2), a base structure (3), and a wall structure (4) provided with thermal insulation and sheet metal cladding. The base structure (3) is made of concrete or the like and includes at least one trough or hopper bottomed tank (5) for the separated particales, wall structure (4) is made of steel and attached to the base structure (3) with a substantially rigid joint (5). The wall structure (4), except for the rigid joint (6), is provided to allow thermal expansion and contraction.
