QWORK Automatic Timed Condensate Drain Valve 1/2" NPT Inlet 1/4" Outlet – Programmable Electric Air Drain for Compressor Tanks, Dryers & Filters

I bought this for my 80 gallon twin cylinder two stage air compressor with 5 hp motor. It’s getting older and I decided to let the moisture out the easy way. These work great! Every set period of time (variable) the solenoid activates and drains moisture out of the tank. This cleans the air for outside use and prevents rust inside the tank. I recommend these units.

Being busy and forgetful, I often forget to drain the water build up from my compressor. This automatic drain solves the problem. Water causes damage to the compressor as well as the air powered tools. Water can crea problems while painting and using blast media. Simple screw in and power up operation with minimal configuration is required. While 150 psi isn't all that much pressure the sturdy construction of this drain promotes safe usage especially considering the really competitive pricing.

The seller may not have even tried his own product—some parts are 1/2inch straight thread, and others 1/2 inch tapered thread. They don’t work together—don’t hold air. I can’t tell you if this gadget works at all, because I gave up on it, too late to return it. The directions are incomprehensible, with references to things like “lizard electricity” and “ensure the platoon”. I had no idea what they were trying to say, in some parts. At best, some sections were vague, but at least the words fit.

Pros: Valve worked just fine. Cons: (1) 1st one leaked around the shutoff valve stem. The replacement also leaked around the shutoff valve stem. (2) The hose does not mate to anything .... unless you go to the hardware store. (3) Main connections are 1/2-14 NPS (straight) and do not play well with the common 1/2-14 NPT (tapered) All-in-all a pain in the butt. Cannot recommend.

The solenoid valve seems to be great quality, but the rest of the parts are just there as part of the kit. Of course, I had to buy extra fittings, but that is to be expected. I definitely recommend doing something like this to your air compressor as it saves the tank from rusting.

Great product. I have multiple air storage tanks for my shop. I had them all piped to one manual drain valve, that at times you'd remember to drain when water started shooting out of your air tool! I haven't seen any moisture in system since installing this valve. It'll pay for itself in no time by protecting air tools.

Works great

This is the best auto drain ever, it would be sweet if it had a 5 hour setting for lower usage compressors. But I absolutely love this thing. We own 4 compressors all 80 gallon and this has really helped.

Not complete,had to buy additional fittings to make connections

Funciona excelente 👌🏽

Se ve de buena calidad y presentación

compré este "kit" pensando que era lo único que necesitaba para dejar mi compresor con purga automática. no trae adaptador de 1/2 a 1/4 npt, el cual tuve que pedir de amazon por que no lo conseguí en las tiendas cercanas a mi. le pongo 2 estrellas por que la solenoide jala bien por el momento, pero este producto se anuncia como un kit y no es un kit, solo son una seleccion de piezas sin ese adaptador.
