Abstract
A drain valve assembly includes a valve housing having an upper section and a lower section and a poppet valve positioned in the housing and extending between the lower section and the upper section. The poppet valve is arranged to fluidly seal the lower section from the upper section, the poppet valve in the water collection chamber being arranged to be normally sealingly positioned across the outlet port to prevent water exiting the water collection chamber to the outlet port. The poppet valve is attached to the pressure diaphragm in the upper section. The drain valve assembly also includes a pressure line for providing a pressure signal to the upper section such that when the pressure from the pressure line in the upper section exceeds a predetermined opening pressure it causes the pressure diaphragm to lift.
