Compressors
Open the drain valve carefully and slowly. If the drain valve is opened too much,
it is accompanied by high noise level and uncontrolled jet of the accumulated
condensate
Risk of slipping on a wet floor in case of the collecting vessel overflow.
During regular operation, it is recommended to drain
condensate from the pressure tank.

Switch off the compressor from the mains and
decrease air pressure in the device to max. 1 bar,
e.g. by releasing air through the connected device.

Install the hose with condensate drain valve into
the prepared bottle and drain condensate from the
tank by opening the drain valve (1).
