Hi,

I would like to ask for advise/information about the separator in vacuum system.

as shown in attached file, i am confused why there is a minimum distance requirement
from the bottom of the liquid separator vessel
from the top of the effluent separator vessel for about 1 meter.

thank you for taking your time.

sincerely,
gimenz

I have attached another sketch.
I am thinking that maybe the reason is to cause the flow of water from liquid seal separator
going to the effluent separator.

But then the pressure from liquid seal separator is high (2bara)
that a flow could still occur even if it the same level with the effluent separator (pressure is under vacuum).

sincerely,
gimenz
