Hi Carroll,

That's exactly what we need to drain, the condensate from the air dryer section.

>From the manual: The dryers are equipped with an electronic condensate drain (EWD). The condensate from the condensate trap accumulates in a collector. When the condensate reaches a certain level, it is discharged through the drain outlet (1).

Air compressor manufacturers offer condensate management systems to trap the oil in the compressed air condensate.  ESH&Q actually maintains a list of site condensate management systems protecting the HRSD sanitary system from oil.

Atlas Copco also provides condensate management systems (https://www.atlascopco.com/en-us/compressors/products/condensate-treatment).
