Abstract: A device for separating liquid from liquid-containing compressed gas. The device comprises two tanks (1,4) one situated above the other. The lower tank (1) is provided with a compressed gas inlet (2) which is directed against a surface (3) of the tank to cause separation of the major part of the liquid. The upper tank (4) is provided with a shell (6) having an access opening (9) at its upper end. The gas flow enters the upper tank (4) through a conduit (12) and passes then through opening (9) and a zigzag-shaped channel formed by walls (10,3,14,15) in shell (6). The gas flow then passes through filter (5,16). Separation is performed in several steps by change of direction of the gas flow and by filtering. Positioning of the access opening (9) at the top allows considerable expansion of the liquid-gas mixture without contamination of the filter (5,16).

Abstract: A liquid-injected compressor device for avoiding condensation of moisture in the outlet of a compressor is disclosed. The device comprises a control valve which is actuated in opposite directions by two sensors. One of the sensors senses the inlet temperature of the compressor and the other the outlet temperature. A constant temperature difference is maintained between the inlet and outlet of the compressor.
