Removing Condensate from Compressed Air


Air Trap automatically drains condensate and oil from compressed air systems.

The trap can be fitted with a pressure –balancing line to ensure air can escape from the trap  body to prevent air locking

Recommended Installations include receiver tank ,after coolers and air mains Air trap automatically

Mainly at start up condensate enters the air trap the float is rising and condensate will be discharged through the wide open valve

Air which usually enters the trap body together with the condensate will  accumulate in the upper  part of the trap body to prevent the air locking a pressure balancing line connects the upper part of the trap  with the drained equipment  so that the air can escape easily from the trap body

Condensate continuously enters the air trap depending on the condensate amount float will move upward or downward to open or close the valve seat  usually a certain liquid level will be maintained in the trap body and condensate will be discharged continuously .Air will leave the trap body through the pressure balancing
