摘要

A separator is described as provided with a gas/liquid separator vessel, a sight glass, and a carry-over meter. The sight glass is positioned on the exterior of the gas/liquid separator vessel, and has a first inlet and a second inlet in fluid communication with a separation chamber of the gas/liquid separator vessel. The sight glass is further provided with a first outlet in fluid communication with the first inlet, and a second outlet in fluid communication with the second inlet. The sight glass has a tube extending between the first inlet and the second inlet with at least a portion of the tube being transparent to light in a visible range of wavelengths. The carry-over meter is provided with a first densitometer connected to the first outlet of the sight glass via piping and a second densitometer connected to the second outlet of the sight glass via piping.
