Designed for liquid slugs or heavy liquid loads, the Eaton standard size Type 10-R Series gas liquid separators can be provided with a large reservoir to meet liquid holdup requirements. Eaton provides a compact model for applications where space is restricted. Type R Separators are constructed in accordance with the ASME Code Section VIII, Division 1 and are code stamped. They are available with 150 lb. slip on raised face flanges rated at 200 psi at 300 °F or with 300 lb. slip on raised face flanges rated at 250 psi at 650 °F. They feature fabricated carbon steel construction, with internal vane blades made of 304L stainless steel.

Eaton’s Type 10-R Series Separators have two stages for separating large volumes of liquid from a smaller volume of a gas or vapor. In stage one, the flow enters the inlet and is deflected downward by an impingement plate, causing it to lose velocity. This results in the majority of the liquid dropping into a reservoir. In the second stage, the moisture laden gas passes through a vane element where any remaining moisture is separated and flows down into the reservoir. The separator removes all liquid and solid entrainment where the particle size is 10 microns or greater.
