[QUOTE="zsavage81, post: 707670, member: 11641"] Get a timed or no loss drain for your tank to continuously bleed water out. Also, if your hard lined, you can plumb it to help get water out. Run hard line vertical out of the compressor and then "U" back down towards the floor (as the air cools in the line moisture condenses into liquid and runs back down into the tank to be removed by the drain). Then put a "T" and your QD fitting for the hose at least 12" from the end of the down pipe with a ball valve at the end of the 12" piece. This way moisture that makes it up and over settles down in the 12" piece and can be released by the ball valve rather than being forced into your machine. I run one of these: [url=https://www.grainger.com/product/HANKISON-200-CFM-Compressed-Air-Dryer-1ZPU2]https://www.grainger.com/product/HANKISON-200-CFM-Compressed-Air-Dryer-1ZPU2[/url] and a desiccant filter at the plasma.
