Abstract

A separating device for separating a liquid from gas is provided with a separating element that has a housing with housing cover closing off an end face of the housing. A filter element is arranged in the housing. A coupling element is provided to couple the separating element to a connector device. The housing cover has a central first gas passage and a second gas passage arranged radially outwardly of the first gas passage. The housing cover has a housing cover thread correlated with the first gas passage. The housing cover thread is to be screwed to a coupling element thread of the coupling element. A fluid discharge channel is arranged within the coupling element for discharging separated liquid from the separating device. The housing cover thread and the coupling element thread, in a position of use of the separating device, are connected substantially seal-tightly to each other.
