Abstract
The invention relates to a condensate discharge device for compressed gas systems, comprising a housing (21), which has a condensate collecting chamber (22) that can be connected to the compressed gas system by means of a condensate feed (23) and which has a condensate drain (24) that can be closed by means of valve assembly (25), and comprising a tubular body (32) protruding into the condensate collecting chamber (22) for accommodating at least one electronic filling level measuring device (31), by means of which the condensate filling level in the condensate collecting chamber (22) can be detected, wherein the housing (21) can be mounted in a first, vertical mounting position and a second, horizontal mounting position and the longitudinal axis of the tubular body (32) extends at an angle to the condensate feed direction (34).
