4. Configuració i instal·lació

Follow these steps to properly install the automatic compressor tank drain kit:

1. Depressurize Compressor: Turn off the air compressor and disconnect it from the power source. Open the manual drain valve on the bottom of the tank to completely drain all air and moisture.
2. Remove Existing Drain: Once the tank is fully depressurized and empty, remove the existing manual drain valve from the bottom of the compressor tank.
3. Preparar connexions: Apply thread sealant (e.g., PTFE tape) to the male threads of the 1/4'' NPT Street Tee.
4. Install Street Tee: Thread the 1/4'' NPT Street Tee into the drain port at the bottom of the compressor tank. Tighten securely with a wrench, ensuring not to overtighten.
5. Install Petcock Valve: Apply thread sealant to the male threads of the 1/4'' Petcock Valve. Thread the petcock valve into one of the open ports of the Street Tee. This valve will serve as the automatic drain.
6. Install Tubing Fitting: Apply thread sealant to the male threads of the 1/4'' Tube Fitting x 1/8'' Male NPT Fitting. Thread this fitting into the remaining open port of the Street Tee.
7. Connexió de tubs: Insert one end of the 8 ft. polyurethane tubing firmly into the 1/4'' tube fitting. Ensure a secure connection. Route the other end of the tubing to a suitable drainage area, ensuring it is free from kinks and obstructions.
8. Prova de fuites: Reconnect the compressor to power and allow it to build pressure. Once the compressor reaches its cut-off pressure, turn it off. Carefully check all connections for air leaks using a soapy water solution. Bubbles indicate a leak that needs to be tightened.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Automatic Compressor Tank Drain Kit operates automatically once installed correctly.

• When the air compressor cycles off and the pressure in the tank drops, the petcock valve will automatically open to discharge accumulated condensation.
• The valve will then close as the pressure stabilizes or the compressor restarts.
• No manual intervention is required for daily draining.

6. Manteniment

Regular inspection and minimal maintenance will ensure the longevity and proper function of your drain kit.

• Inspecció mensual: Visually inspect all connections for leaks and the polyurethane tubing for signs of wear, cracks, or kinks.
• Valve Function Check: Periodically observe the petcock valve during a compressor cycle to ensure it is opening and closing correctly.
• Neteja: If the valve appears to be sticking or not draining properly, depressurize the tank and carefully remove the petcock valve. Clean any debris or mineral buildup from the valve mechanism.
• Substitució de tubs: Replace the polyurethane tubing if it shows signs of damage or degradation.
