Zusammenfassung:A cyclonic type lubricant separator with various features that reduces pressure losses, manages local gas velocities which may contribute to entrainment of liquid(s) (e.g. oil), maintains and/or improves oil separation (e.g. achieving lower oil circulation rates), reduces the size of the lubricant separator, and/or reduces or minimizes costs of production. Lubricant separators herein include a shell, a fluid inlet, a vapor outlet, a liquid outlet, and a discharge tube within the shell. Lubricant separators herein include multiple inlets that have openings such that the discharge tube is out of sight relative to the openings of the inlet, include openings along the length of the discharge tube, and/or include a flow director on the discharge tube, where the flow director includes a surface that extend away from the outer dimension of the discharge tube.
