  • Condensate discharging system for an exhaust-gas measuring device
    Patent number: 11703419
    Abstract: A condensate discharge system for an exhaust gas measuring device. The condensate discharge system includes a condensate separator in which a positive pressure prevails, an outflow line in which atmospheric pressure prevails, a connecting line, and an intermediate reservoir in which the positive pressure prevails. The intermediate reservoir is arranged between the condensate separator and the outflow line and is directly connected to the condensate separator via the connecting line. The intermediate reservoir includes a float valve via which a condensate is dischargeable into the outflow line.

  • Condensate separator for exhaust gas measuring systems
    Patent number: 11305211
    Abstract: A condensate separator for an exhaust gas measuring system. The condensate separator includes a housing with condensate discharge opening, an inlet opening arranged in the housing, a cooled inlet line which introduces a fluid into the housing, and a gas outlet port with a gas entrance and a gas exit. The cooled inlet line opens into the inlet opening. The gas outlet port opens into a gas outlet line. A cross-sectional area of the gas entrance of the gas outlet port is larger than a cross-sectional area of the gas exit of the gas outlet port.
