The 110 Volt Durastill Automatic Drain Valve is made specifically for the Durastill Model 42C Commercial Water Distiller to keep it clean, operate at maximum efficiency and it even extends the life of your 42C. Remember after you distill 42 gallons in a day, the filth that was in the 42 gallons of tap water is now trapped in your boiling chamber. The Automatic Drain Valve is attached to the exit line of the 42C boiling chamber and it will open and drain out the boiling chamber once a day or it can be custom programmed to drain as many times as you want in 24 hours. This means your distiller is getting all of the minerals, sediment, chemicals, toxins and other boiling chamber filth flushed out and cleaned out everyday. Each 42C needs it's own Automatic Drain Valve.
The great news is that when you combine the Automatic Drain Valve for your 42C and the UV Light for your 80 or 150 gallon storage tank, you are automatically cleaning your entire Commercial Water Distillation System everyday which means you hardly have to clean it manually.

The process then starts when the motorized valve assembly is activated by the timer. The drain valve will automatically rotate, drain the evaporator tank, and interrupt the distiller's operation. After approximately 7 minutes the drain valve will rotate again, close the drain, and enable the distiller to continue operation.
