Abstract
An oil separator including a housing that is separated by a partition assembly. The partition assembly includes a plurality of channels that each extend between a first opening and a second opening for passing oil-laden gases therethrough. A plurality of spiral members are each disposed in one of the channels, each define a helical flow path for guiding the oil-laden gases in the helical flow path about the spiral member to separate the oil from the oil-laden gases. One or more valves may be connected to at least one of the openings of the channels. The valves may be moveable in response to a predetermined pressure being applied against the valve. A fine mist separator assembly may include includes a fibrous pad disposed adjacent to and in alignment with the second openings for absorbing oil after the oil-laden gases have passed through the frames.
