Nominal bowl size: 1 quart (1 liter)
Manual drain connection: Will fit 1/8-27 and 1/8-28 pipe thread.
Automatic drain connection: Will fit 1/8-27 and 1/8-28 pipe thread. - Flexible tube

with 3/16" (5mm) minimum I.D. can be connected to the automatic drain. Drain
may fail to operate if the tube I.D. is less than 3/16" (5mm). Avoid restrictions in
the tube.

Automatic drain operating conditions (float operated):

Bowl pressure required to close drain: Greater than 5 psig (0.3 bar)
Bowl pressure required to open drain: Less than 3 psig (0.2 bar)
Minimum air flow required to close drain: 2 scfm (1 dm

Manual operation: Depress pin inside drain outlet to drain bowl

Materials

Body: Aluminum
Bowl: Aluminum
Bowl sight glass: Pyrex
Elastomers: Neoprene and nitrile
Filter element

5 µm: Sintered bronze
25 µm: Sintered bronze
40 µm: Sintered bronze
75 µm: Stainless steel screen

An automatic drain is a two-way valve, which will close when the system is

pressurized. The drain opens when the float rises due to accumulated liquid
and on depressurization.
