  • the US 2,477,982 shows a self-draining separator with outlet openings without spool, with ribs outside the plate package in turn extend to the drum lid.
  • the US 5,735,789 shows a separator with a disc package with rib-shaped spacers.
  • an annular gap of at least 0.5 mm, but a maximum of 5 mm is formed between the ribs and the plate package in order to sufficiently clean this area as well.
