Abstract

A centrifugal separator for separating a liquid phase from a crankcase gas includes a housing, a separation chamber inside the housing, a rotor shaft, a rotor connected to the rotor shaft, a bearing arranged at an end portion of the rotor shaft, and a liquid outlet for the separated liquid phase. The end portion of the rotor shaft extends through the bearing outside the separation chamber. A ring-shaped sealing gap is formed between the housing and a member connected to the rotor shaft outside the separation chamber. The liquid outlet is arranged, seen in relation to the axial direction, radially outside the bearing and radially inside a radially outer end of the ring-shaped sealing gap.
