minute may require more frequent servicing.

OPERATION

Positive discharge of condensate without loss of air.
LEVEL ACTUATED, PILOT CONTROLLED. . .
As condensate collects in the drain housing, a float (1) is held firmly in place
by a magnet (2). When the condensate level rises sufficiently, the buoyancy of
the float overcomes the holding force of the magnet and the pilot valve (3) trips
open.
POWER OPERATED. . .
When the pilot valve opens, compressed air enters air cylinder (4), forcefully
moving piston (5), which opens a large discharge port (6). Condensate is then
forced out of the discharge port. After the condensate has been discharged,
the float drops and pilot valve (3) closes. Compressed air in piston cylinder (4)
bleeds off through bleed hole (7). Air pressure in the housing then moves
piston (5) the opposite way, closing the discharge port and holding it securely
shut until the next operation.
All models can be manually drained and depressurized through manual
drain (8).
