ABSTRACT:
A device for separating liquid from a mixture of the liquid and a gas includes a separator tank having an interior surface. A baffle plate in the tank defines a first higher pressure space and a second relatively lower pressure space therein. The baffle plate has first, second and third edges. The first edge is sealably connected to the interior surface. The second edge has a first portion sealably connected to the interior surface and a second portion spaced from the interior surface and defining a slot therewith. The slot has a length and a width and is the only gas passage between the first and second spaces. The third edge is spaced from the interior surface. Mixture inlet means introduces the mixture into the first space. A liquid collection reservoir is provided at one end of the tank adjacent the third edge. The slot is of such a cross-sectional area that higher pressure mixture in the first space flows through the slot and is dispersed along the entire length thereof. Liquid separated from the mixture in the first space is conducted to the collection reservoir via the space between the third edge and the interior surface such that the third edge is submerged relative to an upper surface level of the liquid reservoir. Liquid separated in the second space via the action of an internal centrifuge and gravity collects in the liquid reservoir. The liquid free gas phase discharges from the separator through a filter element.
