ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An in-line vapor trap for removing water and/or oil vapor from a compressed air line which includes a manifold having spaced coaxial inlet and outlet openings, a hollow base suspended from the manifold, and replaceable cartridges connecting the manifold inlet to the hollow base and connecting the hollow base to the manifold outlet. A honeycomb structure is disposed in the lower portion of the base within the enclosed volume defined thereby and cooperates with the base side and bottom walls to define a zone of substantially zero air movement for collection of liquid droplets. A depression in the base bottom wall forms a liquid sump, and a drain opens into the sump for drainage of captured liquid. This drain features a continuously open annular orifice for continuous weep-drainage of liquid under pressure. The orifice surrounds a wire having an angulated head disposed within the sump which may be rotated by an operator so as to remove dirt and debris from surrounding and clogging the annular weep orifice.
