Abstract
A gas sampling separator for the separation of liquid or other contaminants from gas received from a pipeline may be easily inspected visually and cleaned. A cylindrical body forming a separation chamber is threaded onto a base . A tube within the separation chamber receives gas from a port in the base and directs the gas into the separation chamber for separation of the gas from the contaminants. The separated contaminants collect in a sump formed by the base and may be vented upon actuation of a manually actuated valve
