capillary collector [′kap·ə‚ler·ē kə′lek·tər]

(engineering)

An instrument for collecting liquid water from the atmosphere; the collecting head is fabricated of a porous material having a pore size of the order of 30 micrometers; the pressure difference across the water-air interface prevents air from entering the capillary system while allowing free flow of water.
