Abstract
A coalescence separator for separating liquid droplets from a gas flow has a gas inlet and a gas outlet. A multi-layer structure of a plurality of individual layers of a coalescence filter medium is arranged between the gas inlet and the gas outlet, wherein the coalescence filter medium is provided with a glass fiber paper with glass fibers. The individual layers of the coalescence filter medium each have an individual layer thickness of more than 0.8 mm and maximally 5 mm, a grammage of greater than 80 g/m2 and less than 500 g/m2, and an air permeability of 350 l/m2s to 1,800 l/m2s. The multi-layer structure has between 2 and 80 of the individual layers.
