A Condensate Drain is the piping that carries water condensed on cooling coils and air-handling equipment away to a suitable drain. In data centers CRAC/CRAH units, air handlers and dehumidification produce condensate that must be removed reliably, using trapped, sloped drains or condensate pumps to prevent overflow, corrosion and water damage near IT equipment.
