Why use intelligent condensate drainage - LD

During air compression, condensate can form in the pressure vessel or air receiver. This accumulates in the vessel and causes corrosion. Unwanted condensate also binds to the outgoing compressed air and damages other pneumatic components such as pneumatic tools, cylinders and NC machines. To prevent this process, it is necessary to drain the condensate from the compressor pressure vessel from time to time and carry out the necessary maintenance of the machine. For easy and convenient draining, we can choose these automatic condensate drains, which will perform the necessary maintenance automatically for us. We will prevent wear and corrosion in the compressed air system. Small dimensions, no noise, and draining of water only without compressed air. This means there is no reduction in air flow, as is the case with automatic drains.

The main advantages of condensate drains easy drainage of condensate from all equipment in the compressor room less wear and tear on piping and production equipment less production downtime almost no maintenance
Risk reduction prevention of wear and corrosion of the compressed air system
Application for all equipment using compressed air - dryers, filters, pressure vessels

The new range of LD condensate drains uses a system called capacitive drainage for its function. Compared to traditional timed discharge, this system has several significant advantages.

Condensate discharge process

Condensate enters through connection ❶. Condensate accumulates in the tank ❷ and the diaphragm valve ❸ keeps the drain opening closed. As the level rises, the float ❹ rises, and upon reaching the upper level, valve ❻ opens, which is controlled by the logic circuit of the solenoid valve ❺. The condensate is drained, and when the level reaches the minimum level, the diaphragm closes the drain opening again, without compressed air escaping. A filter and flow regulator are now located in the hose holder.
