Device for removal of condensate from a revolving steam heated drying cylinder or the like. A condensate standpipe rotates with the drying cylinder and features a suction mouthpiece with a suction opening forming an inlet group with the inside wall of the cylinder shell. There is provided, in the area of the suction mouthpiece, at least one guide device which imparts to the steam/condensate mixture entering the condensate standpipe a rotation about the standpipe axis. This guide device enables a reduction of the amount of steam required for dewatering of a drying cylinder. The device is preferably used in dewatering the drying cylinders of a paper machine.
