Abstract

A separator for separating liquid components, in particular oil components, from a gas flow is disclosed including a cyclone and a tank. The liquid separator has a cyclone 1 with a separating chamber 2 including gas supply 3 and gas discharge 4 and a tank 5 which is connected to the cyclone 1 via a connection opening 6. The interior of the tank 5 is filled at least partially with a porous open-pore material 7 in order to interrupt the flow, dampen the flow, dampen the oscillations and/or discharge the liquid.
