Abstract

A compressor system having at least one fluid compressor for compressing a working fluid is disclosed herein. The compressor system can include at least one heat exchanger for removing heat from compressed working fluid. At least one moisture separator can be coupled to the compressor system to separate condensed liquid from the compressed working fluid. A float drain module can be positioned within the moisture separator for receiving the condensed liquid. A float valve and a check valve housed within the float drain module are movable between open and closed positions and cooperate to remove condensed liquid from the working fluid without permitting discharge of gaseous working fluid.
