A compressor system for creating essentially liquid-free fluid flows includes a screw compressor that has an inlet port for receiving a low pressure gas stream, a main lubrication injection port for receiving an injection branch of a filtered lubrication stream, an inlet bearing lubrication port for receiving an inlet branch of the filtered lubrication stream, a discharge bearing and seal lubrication port for receiving a discharge branch of the filtered lubrication stream, a prime mover for powering the rotary screw compressor and a discharge port for discharging a high pressure compressed gas mixture stream from the compressor. The system further includes a separator for receiving the compressed gas mixture stream from the compressor. The separator has at least a primary and a secondary coalescer devices connected in series, such that the primary coalescer device has a smaller surface area than the secondary coalescer device. Additionally, the first coalescer device causes very small liquid particles to become larger liquid particles by flowing the liquid particles through the primary coalescer at a rate which entrains the particles and then flows the entrained liquid particles through the secondary coalescer.
