Abstract

A high-speed water separator comprising a multiplicity of spaced, hollow deflection vanes located in the change of direction plane of a pipe elbow. The suction openings present on the concave vane side are holes located in rows along the vane, these holes being provided with a cover strip extending over the complete row. There is a distance between the cover strip and the vane surface in the plane of the openings and upstream of the openings. Downstream of the openings, the cover strip is connected with the vane surface so as to be water-tight. A multiplicity of side gaps are located in the side walls directly above the concave vane side at the connecting points of the deflection vanes with the side walls.
