<p>A fuel gas scrubber to remove liquids including a float activated shut off valve includes a pressure vessel with a dry gas outlet aperture extending through the top of the vessel as well as a wet gas inlet near the top of the vessel and a liquid outlet near the bottom of the vessel. The fuel gas scrubber including a float activated shut off valve also includes a valve seat positioned within an interior bore at a first end of a tubular housing. A float is encapsulated within the interior bore. The float is axially movable between the first end and a second end of the tubular housing. The float has a valve seat end facing the first end of the hosing and a liquid engaging end facing the second end of the tubular housing. A valve member is positioned on the valve seat end of the float. A liquids inlet is provided at the second end of the tubular housing. Liquids entering the tubular housing cause the float to move axially along the interior bore until the valve member engages the valve seat to seal the first end of the tubular housing. With the shut off valve, as described, the float is protected within the tubular housing.</p> |
