How It Works

The Inline Water Trap, developed and patented by Aquablok, is designed to efficiently remove moisture and condensate from compressed air and gas lines. Water accumulation in pneumatic systems causes corrosion, reduced airflow, and mechanical failure. The Inline Water Trap solves these issues by ensuring a continuous flow of dry, clean compressed air.
The system features a unique condensate drain mechanism that automatically expels water without unnecessary air loss. This eliminates the need for manual valve operation, saving both time and maintenance costs. Inside the unit, moisture-laden air enters a specially designed chamber where centrifugal force separates water droplets from the air stream. These droplets are collected and drained out, while the dry air continues downstream to equipment and tools.
The unit is SABS tested and approved, achieving a verified 96.85% water removal efficiency, even under high-pressure conditions exceeding 12 Bar (1200 kPa). It also acts as a silencer, reducing noise emissions as water is expelled from the system.
