Gravity Fed Zero Loss Drains (NFD)

NFD

NFD Series

Gravity Fed Zero Loss Drain

NEXT’s NFD Series zero loss condensate drains are designed for efficient removal of unwanted condensate particulates, or other moisture within the air stream. Zero loss drains operate by only releasing condensate when there is condensate present within the reservoir. Through this process the Zero loss drain does not allow any compressed air to escape from the system, which results in the saving of compressed air. The NFD prevents blockages with a specially engineered integrated float that adjusts automatically when condensate is detected at the maximum level.  

A direct-acting valve is operated by an accurate level-controlled float that ensures reliable and efficient operation. Thanks to its robust housing, the NFD series is suitable for heavy duty applications. The NFD-10-M is also equipped with a separate manual drain for venting.

NBM Series Features

  •  Large cross section outlet valve opening minimizes the chance of blockages for efficient reliability
