Abstract

An oil/water separator for removing oil-containing constituents from an oil/water mixture includes a main filter designed to separate oil-containing constituents from the oil/water mixture. Untreated oil/water mixture is supplied to the main filter and is removed from the oil/water separator after passing through the main filter, wherein the oil/water separator is designed for supply and removal of these liquids in accordance with the hydrostatic principle. The oil/water separator has a control unit designed to temporarily charge the oil/water separator with control air, by means of which overpressure can be used to push oil/water mixture through the main filter.
