Zusammenfassung:An oil separation assembly for use in a high pressure reciprocating compressor is provided. The compressor includes a suction chamber, a crankcase chamber, and at least one partition member at least partially separating the suction chamber and the crankcase chamber. The at least one partition member includes at least one opening. The oil separation assembly can include at least one demisting structure positioned within the crankcase chamber adjacent the at least one partition member at the at least one opening. At least one securing structure can be secured in operable relation with the at least one demisting structure so as to secure the at least one demisting structure relative to the opening. The oil separation assembly can further include a second demisting structure positioned within the suction chamber adjacent the at least one partition member at the at least one opening.
