Types depending on installation
Devices can be installed in different ways. According to this property, they can be divided into the following types of devices:
- mounted under the sink
- installed in another room
- installed in the basement
- mounted on the street.
The first three types have no fundamental differences, except that the distance from the place where washing is performed is different.
On the street, mainly devices used for industrial enterprises are installed. They can be made of stainless steel or fiberglass, but not plastic, since such a coating can be damaged due to weather conditions and interaction with an aggressive environment, namely chemicals.
What is a grease trap
Blockages in sewer systems are a very common problem in country houses with autonomous sewerage. A common reason for this is incorrect pipe laying during installation, the discharge of substances that cannot dissolve, as well as wastewater with an excessively high content of fatty particles. The last cause of the problem that has arisen can be solved by installing grease trap for sink.
This is a special device that prevents grease from entering sewers and sewage treatment plants.
It has long been used almost everywhere in restaurants, cafes, bars, small bakeries, pubs, pastry shops, as well as in industrial plants where poultry and meat are processed. But recently it began to spread for domestic needs.
Such small devices are designed for cleaning fat in a small amount, domestic wastewater. They are installed under the sink and are able to work with different performance, different volumes, or as it is called the maximum (peak) discharge.
The workshop appliance can be replaced by several small devices installed under the sinks. Due to this, the amount of fat entering the sewer is reduced.
The equipment is a body with inlet and outlet nozzles. Inside there is a partition of one compartment, a flow damper and an air outlet. Above the surface where fatty waste accumulates, a ventilation tube is installed.
Currently, there are many types of devices. They are classified according to the material of manufacture and the method of installation and cleaning.
