IPAC SAC Automatic Drain Traps

PRODUCTSTYLERATINGTYPE
Drain TrapFloat / Lever230 PSIGAutomatic

Every aftercooler and separator needs somewhere for the water to go. The SAC trap collects condensate in a float chamber and discharges it automatically as the float rises, without losing compressed air. Discharge is upward, so the trap can sit below the separator and lift the condensate to a drain line. An external hand valve lets the operator blow the trap down without taking it apart, and an optional vent adapter equalises pressure where the trap is fed from a long drain leg.

Why an automatic trap

A separator that is not drained is a separator that is not working

  • Discharges condensate without venting compressed air
  • Upward discharge lifts to a drain line
  • Blow-down valve for a daily check without tools
