Liquid / Gas Separators

VIG Industries, Inc. manufactures its own liquid / gas separator. The separator consists of a two piece 316 stainless steel housing, and a Teflon membrane, pre-filtration on input, and 1/8"FNPT on outlet and on drain output. The separator's membrane only allows gasses to pass through it, thus preventing any liquid to pass. The liquid simply falls to an outside container which can be easily emptied.

Principal of Operation

The cooling coil brings the temperature of the incoming sample gas down to room temperature thus turning any liquids that may be in the gaseous phase into the liquid phase. After the sample is cooled, it enters the liquid / gas separator. At the heart of the separator is a porous Teflon membrane. The membrane allows gasses to pass through tiny holes in the membrane while not allowing liquid to pass due to their high surface tension quality. The separated water then falls into a liquid collection container, which can be easily emptied and the liquid free gas easily exits the separator.
