Abstract
A separation system for a fuel cell system. The separation system includes a first container with an open top to separate a liquid from a liquid-gas mixture, a second container with an open top, a measuring tube, and a flow meter. The first container includes an inlet to supply the liquid-gas mixture, a first upper outlet to discharge the gas, a second lower outlet to discharge the liquid, and a first container bottom. The second container includes an inlet, a drain with an outlet opening, and a second container bottom. The measuring tube fluidically connects the second lower outlet to the inlet into the second container. The flow meter measures a flow in the measuring tube between the first and second container geodetically below the outlet opening. The outlet opening of the drain is arranged geodetically above the first container bottom and above the second container bottom.
