When compressed air enters the oil-water separator, it produces dramatic changes in flow direction and speed. Then, oil and water droplets with higher density than compressed air are separated by centrifugation.Common impinging and ring rotary oil/water separators are shown.After the compressed air enters the separator housing from the inlet, the air flow is first folded down by the impact of the baffle, and then rises upwards, resulting in a circular rotation.In this way, water droplets and oil droplets are separated from the air and precipitated at the bottom of the housing under the action of centrifugal and inertial forces. Oil droplets can be discharged by opening the bottom valve regularly.Initially purified air is delivered from the outlet to the gas tank.
