Abstract
A separation device for the removal of impurities extracted from a flexible conduit from a fuel such as liquefied petroleum gas is described having a housing with an inlet and an outlet, a means for channeling the fuel from the inlet onto an impingement surface in fluid communication with the fuel stream, the surface acting to condense the impurities, a gravity separation means for collecting the impurities removed from the fuel, and a means for channeling the fuel into an outlet.
