Abstract: A cyclone separator provided with a tube with an axial inflow opening and an axial outflow opening, a stationary swirl body arranged in the tube, designed for imparting a spiraling movement to an axially directed gas liquid flow entering the tube in use, while in the case wall of the tube, a slot has been provided for discharging from the inside space of the tube liquid in the gas/liquid flow thrown outwards, while the slot runs in a spiral-shaped path over the case wall of the tube and/or wherein in the case wall of the tube, downstream of the at least one slot, at least one bypass opening is provided, while means are provided for creating, at the location of the at least one bypass opening, a reduced pressure in the tube relative to the pressure prevailing out-side the tube. The invention also provides a liquid collecting box with such cyclone separator and a pressure vessel provided with such liquid collecting boxes.
