02250182-546 Ingersoll Rand OEM Electric Drain Valve

02250182-546 Ingersoll Rand Electric Drain Valve – Product Overview

The 02250182-546 Electric Drain Valve is an electronically controlled condensate discharge unit designed specifically for Ingersoll Rand compressed air systems. As air is compressed, moisture naturally forms inside tanks, filters, dryers, and piping. Without regular removal, this moisture can cause corrosion, reduced air quality, and damage to downstream equipment.

This OEM valve automates moisture removal by opening at timed intervals to purge condensate effectively and reliably. Its robust solenoid, adjustable timer, and clog-resistant design make it ideal for industrial environments where continuous-duty performance is critical.

Key Features and Benefits

• Genuine Ingersoll Rand OEM Component – Ensures correct fitment, long-term reliability, and consistent discharge performance.

• Automatic Timer Control – Programmable interval and discharge duration allow optimal condensate management for any compressor installation.

• Durable Solenoid Valve – Built to withstand oil-laden condensate, high humidity, and long operating cycles.

• Improves System Efficiency – Prevents rust, corrosion, and moisture carryover into pneumatic tools and downstream equipment.

• Low Maintenance Requirements – Cleanable inlet strainer and manual test button provide easy maintenance and quick diagnostics.

• Energy-Saving Operation – Minimizes unnecessary air loss compared with manual drains.

• Universal Installation – Suitable for compressors, air tanks, filters, moisture separators, and refrigeration dryers.

Functional Design and Performance

The 02250182-546 uses a solid-state electronic timer that controls the solenoid-actuated drain valve. During operation, the timer energizes the solenoid to open the valve momentarily, allowing condensate to be expelled without interrupting system pressure.

The valve’s corrosion-resistant construction is engineered to withstand exposure to oil aerosols, rust particles, and moisture-heavy discharge. Its internal pathways are designed to resist clogging, ensuring consistent performance even in harsh compressor environments.

A conveniently placed manual test button provides instant verification of valve operation, while the cleanable strainer protects the solenoid mechanism from debris. This ensures dependable long-term performance and reduces maintenance costs associated with clogged or poorly functioning drain systems.

Applications and Compatibility

The Ingersoll Rand 02250182-546 Electric Drain Valve is widely used for automatic condensate removal in:

• Ingersoll Rand rotary screw compressors

• Air receiver tanks and wet tanks

• Refrigerated air dryers and desiccant dryers

• Coalescing and particulate filters

• Moisture separators and aftercoolers

• General industrial compressed air systems

Its versatile design makes it suitable for OEM installations, aftermarket service replacements, and air system upgrades.

Performance Advantages

The 02250182-546 OEM electric drain valve offers reliable condensate removal essential for protecting the longevity and efficiency of compressed air systems. By preventing water accumulation, it reduces the risk of:

• Internal tank corrosion

• Failed regulators or solenoid valves

• Contaminated compressed air

• Damage to pneumatic tools and downstream devices

• Reduced dryer and filter performance

Aftermarket drain valves often lack precision timing, consistent solenoid strength, and long-term durability. Using a genuine OEM component ensures dependable operation and compatibility across Ingersoll Rand compressor systems.
