Marry Christmas to all!!!
Hopefully I can install my new IR 60gal compressor next week but need to rig up an auto drain valve system first. I was looking at HF's version at their store today but for the life of me I cannot clearly see how this one works. I looked at their instruction sheet but that was as far as it goes. I hope one of you guys has one installed and can help me. First, it appears that it operates via a pressure differential, I see where it is connected to the tank but the other side of the valve is connected to something and I would like to know what it is. Also, there is a connection on the side of the valve and I assume that is where the drain pipe gets connected. Essentially I would just like to have any accumulated moisture purged when I start my compressor thusly, I really don't need a timer valve system which is very expensive >$120. I am assuming that moisture filters will catch most of any moisture created when the compressor is running.
If anyone is familar with this valve, I'd like some advice and help.
