02250182-543 Ingersoll Rand Electric Drain Valve – Product Overview
The 02250182-543 Electric Drain Valve is a reliable, electronically timed condensate discharge unit designed for automatic moisture removal in Ingersoll Rand compressor systems. Condensation naturally forms inside air receivers, filters, dryers, and piping whenever compressed air cools. Without regular removal, this moisture causes rust, corrosion, reduced air quality, and premature wear of downstream tools and equipment.
This OEM drain valve eliminates manual draining by automatically opening at preset intervals to purge collected condensate. Its durable solenoid mechanism and adjustable electronic timer ensure consistent, long-term performance even in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Genuine Ingersoll Rand OEM Component – Manufactured to exact specifications for guaranteed compatibility and reliability.
-
Automatic Timed Operation – Discharges condensate at user-controlled intervals to maintain a dry, healthy air system.
-
Heavy-Duty Solenoid Valve – Engineered for continuous-duty compressor operation and resistance to oil-laden condensate.
-
Protects the Entire Air System – Reduces corrosion, scale buildup, and moisture carryover into pneumatic tools and equipment.
-
Low Maintenance – Features a serviceable strainer and manual test button for quick functionality checks.
-
Efficient and Reliable – Minimizes unintentional air loss compared to manual or float-style drains.
-
Easy Installation – Standard NPT connections and electrical leads simplify retrofit or replacement.
Functional Design and Performance
The 02250182-543 integrates a solid-state electronic timer and solenoid-actuated valve. During normal operation, the timer energizes the solenoid coil at fixed intervals, opening the valve for a brief period to discharge collected condensate. Both the cycle time (interval) and discharge duration can be adjusted to match system demand, humidity levels, and compressor run patterns.
The valve body is engineered to resist clogging from oil, rust flakes, and particulate matter commonly found in condensate. An integrated inlet screen helps protect internal components, and the manual override button allows quick confirmation of valve functionality without interrupting compressor operation.
By maintaining consistent drainage, the valve prevents moisture accumulation that leads to internal corrosion, pressure drop, valve sticking, and contamination inside air dryers and filtration systems. This greatly extends the lifespan of equipment across the entire air system.
Applications and Compatibility
The Ingersoll Rand 02250182-543 Electric Drain Valve is suitable for use on:
-
Rotary screw air compressors
-
Air receiver tanks, aftercoolers, and condensate separators
-
Pre-filters, coalescing filters, and moisture traps
-
Refrigerated and desiccant air dryers
-
General industrial compressed air installations
Its compact footprint allows installation in tight compressor housings or as an external retrofit on existing moisture removal systems.

Performance Advantages
Using a genuine Ingersoll Rand OEM drain valve ensures accurate cycle control, reliable solenoid operation, and long-term durability. Non-OEM valves often lack proper sealing, suffer premature coil burnout, or fail when exposed to contaminated condensate.
The 02250182-543 provides consistent moisture removal that prevents internal corrosion, reduces maintenance demands, and preserves air quality throughout the compressed air network. This directly improves compressor efficiency, reduces downtime, and extends equipment service life.
