ABSTRACT:
A device for separating gas from a liquid sample stream including a housing defining a vertical, cylindrical chamber, a tangential fluid inlet for introducing a sample stream into the top portion of the chamber, a tangential outlet through which the liquid portion of the sample flows from the bottom of the chamber, a tubular-like gas separator unit in the top of the chamber, a gas outlet opening to the upper end of the gas separator unit, and a capillary tube connected to the gas outlet. The gas separator unit includes a spirally extending wall spaced radially inwardly from the top of the chamber wall to define an annular passage open to the fluid inlet. The side edges of the spiral wall are arranged to define a vertically extending opening therebetween. The sample stream entering through the inlet under pressure initially flows circumferentially through the annular passage, the heavier liquid portion tends to follow the chamber wall, and a substantial portion of the gas bubbles in the sample is separated therefrom and "scooped" into the gas separator unit through the vertical opening. The gas separated from the sample and collecting inside the gas separation unit flows through the capillary tube which restricts flow so as to minimize the overflow of liquid.
