A drain valve performs the critical function of allowing excess water vapour to escape into the atmosphere. The removal of condensation helps prevent the formation of corrosion that will eventually damage the compressor and shorten its lifespan.Some compressed air auto drains work on the float principal. As water and contamination accumulates in the bottom of the bowl, it will ultimately lift a float. The compressed air, under pressure in the bowl, will then vent to atmosphere through the drain opening, blowing the water and debris from the bowl as it does.
Quick Exhaust Valve
(0 Customer reviews)Quick Exhaust Valves facilitate accelerated movement of the cylinder rod or valve actuator. A Quick Exhaust Valve is a 3/2 valve with an extra large exhaust orifice designed to fit directly onto the cylinder port connection.
The function of a quick-release valve is to rapidly exhaust air from the controlled device. It is normally located adjacent to the controlled device, rather than requiring exhaust air to return and exhaust through the control valve. This decreases release time.
