A moisture condensate separator for use with an air compressor and a pneumatic machine includes a body, a separation assembly, and a valve assembly. The body may define an interior chamber including a condensate accumulation zone, a compressor supply inlet, a machine supply outlet, a cylinder, an auxiliary inlet, and a drain hole. The separation assembly may be located in the interior chamber and fluidly communicated with the compressor supply inlet and the machine supply outlet so as to accumulate moisture condensate in the accumulation zone. The valve assembly may include a piston movable between an open and closed position. A biasing member may bias the piston toward the closed position. Auxiliary pressure provided through the auxiliary inlet may act on the piston and move the piston to the open position, thereby allowing the accumulated moisture condensate to drain.
