Prevost Drains for Condensate

Prevost PDE 100 – Electronic Timer Controlled Condensate Drain

Protect your compressed air equipment from corrosion and liquid damage with the Prevost PDE 100 Electronic Drain Valve. This reliable, automated solution eliminates the risk of human error by regularly expelling accumulated water and oil from air receivers, dryers, and separators, ensuring a dry and efficient air supply around the clock.

• Fully Automatic Operation: Replaces unreliable manual drains with a precision solenoid valve that cycles automatically, preventing condensate backing up into your air lines.
• Dual Adjustable Controls: Features two easy-to-set dials that allow you to customize the Interval (how often it opens) and the Discharge Time (how long it remains open). This precision allows you to tune the valve to your specific humidity conditions, ensuring effective drainage with minimal compressed air loss.
• Integrated Protection: Designed with a combination ball valve and mesh strainer on the inlet to trap rust, scale, and debris before they reach the valve mechanism, significantly preventing clogging and extending the service life of the unit.
• Manual Override: Equipped with a prominent “Test” button that allows operators to instantly cycle the valve to verify function or manually discharge excessive fluid during maintenance checks.
• Universal Compatibility: Compact and capable of operating in any position, it is easily installed on aftercoolers, refrigerated dryers, filters, and tank drip legs across a wide range of system pressures.

The PDE 100 is the industry-standard “set and forget” solution for maintaining clean, dry air and preventing costly water damage to downstream pneumatic tools.

Prevost PMA Series – Magnetic Zero Air Loss Drain

Secure your air treatment quality with the Prevost PMA Magnetic Drain, a high-efficiency mechanical solution designed to automatically remove condensate from filters, separators, and drop legs without wasting compressed air. Operating without the need for electricity, this drain utilizes a precise magnetic float system to detect liquid levels, making it the ideal choice for hazardous environments, mobile equipment, or remote installations where power is unavailable.

• Zero Air Loss Efficiency: The valve actuates only when condensate accumulation is detected and closes instantly before any compressed air can escape, preventing pressure drops and delivering significant energy savings compared to timer-based drains.
• No Electricity Required: Because it relies on magnetic force rather than a solenoid, this drain allows for automatic drainage in locations where electrical wiring is difficult, expensive, or unsafe (such as ATEX zones).
• Reliable Magnetic Actuation: Unlike standard mechanical floats that are prone to sticking, the PMA uses a magnetic field to trigger the discharge. This separates the float from the valve mechanism, ensuring consistent operation even when handling oily or dirty condensate.
• Compact Integration: Specifically designed for easy installation on the bottom of air treatment components like particulate filters and water separators, upgrading them from manual to fully automatic operation.
• Vertical Discharge: Features a straightforward vertical design that uses gravity and internal pressure to rapidly expel water and oil emulsion, preventing liquid carryover into your pneumatic tools.

This drain offers the perfect balance of energy conservation and mechanical simplicity for critical air treatment points.
