A device () for discharging liquid water from a water separator () in a fuel cell system (), having a valve device (), a liquid sensor () and a control unit () which controls the valve device () depending on measured values of the liquid sensor (). The liquid sensor () is arranged downstream of the valve device () in the flow direction.

Device for discharging liquid

A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell with an anode chamber and a cathode chamber. The fuel cell system also includes a recirculation device that recirculates anode exhaust gas to the anode input, which includes a discharge line for discharging liquid and/or gas from the region of the recirculation device, and an air conveying device for supplying the cathode chamber with a supply air flow. A water separator, which is connected to the discharge line and through which at least a portion of the supply air flow passes, is situated between the air conveying device and the cathode chamber in the area of the supply air flow.
