- Allow for direct drainage of the tank
Indirect Drain Valves
- Installed at a point higher than the lowest point in the tank
- Drain line connects the lowest point of the tank to the valve housing
- Used when design or safety requirements prevent direct installation of a drain valve at the tank's lowest point
