The invention relates to an apparatus for dedusting, deodorising and sterilizing air, preferably for use in air filter devices for room air filters and motor vehicles and for use in vacuum cleaners and comparable devices and for use in industrial air treatment devices. The air flows for enrichment with active oxygen ions and with ozone through an electrical ionization module (1.7, 2.1) fed by an electrical high-voltage generator, which is arranged in the flow direction in front of a filter medium and is firmly connected to the filter medium (1.2, 2.2), so that one Exchange of the filter medium (1.2, 2.2) the ionization module (1.7, 2.1) must also be replaced. The electrical connection of the ionization module (1.7, 2.1) to the high-voltage generator takes place via electrical contacts located on the filter medium (1.2, 2.2). The invention also relates to a method which is carried out with such an apparatus. |
