Hankison 3000-10 Auto Drain

The Hankison 3000-10 Auto Drain is a heavy-duty, float-actuated condensate management solution engineered specifically for the Norgren HPR Series. Designed for high-demand industrial pneumatic systems, this automatic drain valve provides a robust replacement for legacy components including part numbers 3055807, HKN-3090-900, and HKN-3090900. This unit utilizes a mechanical float mechanism to reliably discharge condensate buildup from separators, receiver tanks, and refrigerated air dryers without the need for electrical power or manual intervention.

Operating effectively within a pressure range of up to 150 psi and temperatures from 33?F to 140?F, the Hankison 3000-10 features a 1/2 inch NPT connection for seamless field integration. Its compact, corrosion-resistant construction is vital for maintaining air quality and preventing liquid carryover in sensitive downstream equipment. For technicians performing compressed air system maintenance, this mechanical auto drain simplifies the process of moisture removal, ensuring the integrity of the air stream and protecting pneumatic tools from water damage and oil contamination.

Key Benefits

• OEM Compatibility: Serves as a direct replacement auto drain for Norgren HPR series and discontinued Hankison part numbers HKN-3090-900 and 3055807.
• Power-Free Operation: The mechanical float design ensures the drain valve operates without electrical wiring, making it ideal for standard condensate discharge in remote or hazardous areas.
• Efficient Moisture Management: Helps eliminate condensate buildup to prevent corrosion in piping and downstream tool failure.
• Simplified Installation: Features standard 1/2" NPT threading for quick retrofitting into existing filter housings and separators.

Common Questions

What is the difference between the 3000-10 and the older HKN-3090 series?
The Hankison 3000-10 is the updated, current-production equivalent designed to meet the same physical and performance specifications as the HKN-3090-900. It is a drop-in replacement auto drain that requires no modification to the HPR series housing.

How do I troubleshoot a drain that won't discharge?
Most pneumatic auto drain issues stem from debris clogging the internal orifice. If the unit fails to cycle, isolate the air supply, depressurize the system, and inspect the internal float and seal for sediment or scale buildup that may be pinning the mechanism.

Can this be used on high-pressure systems?
This specific auto drain replacement is rated for standard industrial pressures up to 150 psi. For high-pressure applications exceeding this limit, please consult our engineering team for a high-pressure rated alternative.
