ABSTRACT:
An oil separator in the output of an air compressor comprises a housing to which a mixture of compressed air and entrained oil is supplied through an inlet port which opens toward a separation unit removably inserted into the housing. The separation unit, comprising one or more filters adjoining an outlet port for the purified air, has a drain provided with an extractor for the forced exhaustion of oil retained in that unit; the extractor carried by the filter unit may be a nozzle, with an orifice that opens into the fluid flow issuing from the inlet port, or a pump whose impeller is driven by that fluid flow either upstream or downstream of the separation unit.
