ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a fluid reservoir, chiefly a reservoir whose purpose is to constitute a buffer, wherein the liquid level varies substantially comprising an inlet conduit (1) for liquid, an outlet conduit (2) for liquid, reservoir walls (3), a reservoir bottom (4) and a liquid outflow arrangement (5) located inside the said reservoir, which is connected to the said inlet conduit (2), the said outflow arrangement (5) comprising means (6) to ensure that its opening (7) follows the surface of the liquid (8) in the said reservoir (3, 4), the opening (7) preferably being located so that it discharges on a level with or immediately below the said liquid surface, which significantly reduces the risk that gas is included in the liquid flowing out via the outlet conduit.
