Abstract
The present invention is directed to a water separator for separating a two-phase stream into a liquid water component and a gas component. The water separator includes a housing defining a cavity and includes an input port, a gas output port and a water output port. A hydrophobic filter is provided in the cavity and interposed between the input port and the gas output port so as to prevent a liquid water component of a two-phase stream of gas and water entering the input port from exiting the gas output port. A hydrophilic filter is provided in the cavity and interposed between the input port and the water output port so as to prevent the gas component entering the input port from exiting the water output port. The gas component separates from the water component by passing through the hydrophobic filter and leaving the separator through the gas output port, and the liquid component separates from the gas component by passing through the hydrophilic filter and leaving the water separator through the water output port.
