Abstract
A device for the precipitation of liquid from a gas stream includes a preseparator chamber in a first housing portion arranged to flow a gas stream laterally centrally to rebound from an opposing sidewall and deflect upwards to a main separator in a second housing portion. The main separator includes a drainage element separating oil from the gas stream. A guide element is arranged between the housing portions and includes an outer wall with a central opening and at least one guide part arranged on the wall to laterally deflect the gas stream. The deflected gas stream flows laterally through the main separator.
