A drain valve (10) for a vehicle compressed air system, which separates dirt, water, debris and other relatively heavy objects from a compressed air stream. The drain valve (10) includes a sump (20) with a tangential inlet. The tangential inlet creates a vortex within the sump that collects relatively heavy objects at the bottom of the sump and allows the compressed air to exit the drain valve through an outlet port (40) located at the top of the drain valve. A pressure actuated valve and drain port allows for the water to be discharged from the drain valve while retaining the pneumatic signal.

Cette invention concerne une valve de purge (10) destinée à un système d'air comprimé de véhicule, laquelle valve de purge est chargée de séparer les impuretés, l'eau, les débris et autres objets relativement lourds d'un courant d'air comprimé. La valve de purge (10) comprend un carter (20) ainsi qu'un orifice d'admission tangentiel. Cet orifice d'admission tangentiel crée un vortex à l'intérieur du carter qui collecte les objets relativement lourds au niveau du fond du carter et permet à l'air comprimé de sortir de la valve de purge par un orifice d'évacuation (40) situé au niveau de la partie supérieure de la valve de purge. Une valve actionnée par pression et un orifice de purge permettent à l'eau d'être évacuée de la valve de purge tout en retenant le signal pneumatique.
