Figure 6- 4 – DETAILED WATER SEPARATOR AND DRAIN
The separator (1) removes the liquid water from the compressed air stream by inertial effects and
collected in its lower head. The collected water is evacuated by a float-type drain valve. The device
prevents the loss of compressed air by only allowing the discharge of liquid water during its opening
phase. An isolation ball valve is provided between the separator lower head and the drain valve body.
This allows the safe and quick removal of the drain valve for servicing, in case the drain valve
malfunctions.
