Midland Industries 39595 Air Tank Drain Pull Valve 1/4 in Mpt

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 39595 is a brass-body air tank drain pull valve designed for manual condensate removal from compressed air tanks. The valve operates via a 5-foot coated pull cable, allowing the technician to actuate the drain from a convenient distance without reaching under the tank or behind mounted equipment. The 1/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) connection fits standard air tank drain ports. This type of valve is commonly installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC-R technicians servicing compressed air systems in shops, garages, and light industrial environments.

The 39595 is suited for residential and light commercial compressed air tank installations where remote drain actuation is preferred. The coated pull cable resists corrosion and abrasion during regular service cycles. The brass body provides durability in environments where moisture and condensate contact is frequent. This valve is a direct-install fitting on air compressor tanks equipped with a 1/4-inch MPT drain port, a common configuration across many tank sizes and brands.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC-R technician. Depressurize and drain the air tank completely before removing any existing drain fitting or installing this valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MPT threads in accordance with the fitting manufacturer and applicable plumbing code requirements. Confirm the pull cable is routed clear of moving components and heat sources before returning the system to service.
