Pneumatic Drain Valve

The Pneumatic Drain Valve is activated pneumatically by pressure from the control valve. This causes the drain valve to open allowing the pressure supply line to vent to atmosphere. This design allows for large air volumes to be discharged quickly and eliminates the need for a solenoid valve with high current consumption.

The 21 bar pressure limiting valve is integrated in the drain valve.
