WLD1900-Series Liquid Drainers have Cast Iron Bodies ••• Parallel Pipe Connection ••• 250 psig Operating Pressures •••
All Stainless Steel Internals. Used for draining liquids from Tanks, Vessels, and piping systems containing pressurized Air or
other gases.
• All stainless steel internals
• Hardened valve seat for longer service life
• Cast Iron body
• In-line repairable
The WLD1900 Series liquid drainers contain a float-operated valve. When liquid enters the drainer, the float rises opening the valve which allows liquid to be drained.
Selection / Sizing / Capacities Determine the capacity (lbs/hr) required at the specified differential pressure. Locate differential pressure on capacity chart; move down column to capacity required. Make sure to select the correct model based on the maximum inlet pressure.
Capacity in lbs/hr is based on differential pressure across the drainer. Select a model with an equal or higher PMO (max. operating pressure) than the maximum inlet pressure to the drainer. If the pressure to the drainer exceeds the PMO, the drainer may not open. If discharging to atmosphere, the differential pressure is equal to the inlet pressure.
Example:
Required to drain 3,000 lbs/hr at a differential pressure of 5 PSI. The maximum inlet pressure is 30 PSIG.
Select Model:
WLD1916-030, 11/2”, capacity up to 4,710 lbs/hr based on 5 PSI differential pressure.

Installation and Maintenance The installation should include isolation valves to facilitate maintenance and an in-line strainer. The trap must be level and upright for the float mechanism to operate. Trap must be adequately sized and properly located in the system. Installation may require an equalizing or balancing line connected from top of drainer body to the above piping, for proper drainage.
All working components can be replaced with the drain trap remaining in the pipeline. Repair kits include float, valve seat & disc, and gaskets. For full maintenance details see Installation and Maintenance Manual.
