ABSTRACT:
A trap for separating and retaining grease, oil, and particulates from water or other fluids. The inventive device includes a trap body having an inlet fitting extending thereinto and terminating in a deflecting cup such that fluid entering the trap flows vertically upward from the cup. A planar baffle plate extending across an interior of the trap body retains grease on a first side thereof while permitting the water to flow under the planar baffle plate to a second side thereof. An angled baffle plate also extends across the interior of the trap body and includes an angled weir for deflecting food particles and the like from passage thereover. An outlet fitting extends from below the water to permit exiting of the filtered water from the trap body.
