(under subclass 600) Coating apparatus including means for removing from the coating material foreign matter or undesirable components such as oversize particles or agglomerates.
(1) Note. A separator which also functions as a coating applier will be classified on the basis of its function as an applicator, rather than in this subclass. Where, however, the separator deposits the coating material upon an applicator, the patent is classified in this subclass.
