Abstract

In order to provide a painting installation for painting workpieces, which is compact in configuration and allows a reliable separation of paint overspray from a raw gas flow, the painting installation includes the following: a painting booth, in which the workpieces are paintable with paint; a conveying device, by means of which the workpieces to be painted are conveyable in a conveying direction through the painting booth; a separation and/or filter system for cleaning a raw gas flow, which is leaving the painting booth and has absorbed paint overspray in the painting booth, wherein the separation and/or filter system includes at least one filter device for separating the paint overspray from the raw gas flow; and at least one clean gas line for a clean gas flow, which is obtainable by cleaning the raw gas flow by means of the at least one filter device.

Dependent claims

A painting installation for painting workpieces, comprising:

a painting booth, in which the workpieces are paintable with paint and conveyable in a conveying direction through the painting booth;
a filter system for cleaning a raw gas flow, which is leaving the painting booth and has absorbed paint overspray in the painting booth, wherein the filter system comprises at least two filters for separating the paint overspray from the raw gas flow and at least two clean gas lines, each clean gas line positioned to receive a clean gas flow exiting at least one filter
wherein the filter system comprises at least one clean gas collecting channel positioned to receive clean gas flow from the at least two clean gas lines, wherein the entire at least one clean gas collecting channel, on the one hand, and the entire at least two filters, on the other hand, being arranged on mutually opposing sides of the filter system with respect to a vertical longitudinal center plane of the painting booth.
