60in X 20ft 1440 psi 3 Phase Horizontal Separator Description

A three-phase horizontal separator is a type of equipment used in the oil and gas industry to separate three different phases of fluids, namely oil, gas, and water, from each other. It is a vessel with a cylindrical shape, and it is usually made of steel.

The separator works on the principle of gravity separation, where the fluids with different densities are allowed to settle due to the difference in their densities. The separator has three compartments, each designed to accommodate a specific phase of the fluid.

The top compartment is designed to hold the gas phase, while the middle compartment holds the oil phase, and the bottom compartment holds the water phase. The three compartments are separated by horizontal plates or baffles that prevent the fluids from mixing.

The fluids enter the separator through an inlet and are directed to a distribution system, which evenly distributes the fluids to each compartment. As the fluids flow through each compartment, the heavier phases settle to the bottom, and the lighter phases rise to the top.

The separated phases are then collected and sent to separate storage tanks for further processing. The three-phase horizontal separator is an essential component in the oil and gas industry, as it enables the separation of the different phases of fluids, making it easier to process and transport them.
