Product Information

Full details

The McAlpine SR10V 75mm Water Seal Running Tubular Swivel P Trap is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts seeking a high-performance, anti-syphon solution for basin and sink installations. Its primary benefit is the integrated 'Silentrap' anti-syphon valve, which maintains a water seal even under heavy flow conditions, effectively blocking foul odors from entering the room. While it provides superior performance and flexibility due to its swivel design and multifit outlet, users should note that the anti-syphon mechanism requires a slightly larger installation footprint compared to standard, non-valved P traps.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the SR10V require a specific pipe size?

The multifit outlet is designed to be compatible with most standard metric waste pipe sizes, offering high flexibility for various installations.

Can this be used for kitchen sinks?

While primarily designed for basins, it can be used in various tubular applications; however, ensure the flow rate and pipe diameter meet your specific sink requirements.

Is the anti-syphon valve replaceable?

The unit is designed as a complete system; typically, the entire trap is replaced if the internal mechanism fails, though regular cleaning prevents most failures.

Why is the 75mm seal depth important?

A 75mm seal provides a larger buffer against evaporation and siphoning compared to standard 50mm traps, offering better protection against odors.

What is the purpose of the 'Silentrap' name?

It refers to the silent operation of the anti-syphon valve, which prevents the loud gurgling noises typically caused by air being pulled through the trap.

Troubleshooting

Slow drainage after installation

Verify that the multifit outlet is not pushed too far into the waste pipe, which could obstruct the flow.

Gurgling sounds remain after installation

Ensure the anti-syphon valve is not blocked by debris and that the waste pipe is properly vented.

Minor leakage at connection points

Check that all compression washers are seated flat and that the nuts are tightened firmly by hand; do not overtighten with tools.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents gurgling and foul odors via anti-syphon technology
  • High level of installation flexibility with swivel adjustments
  • Deep 75mm water seal for increased safety
  • Robust construction for long-term reliability
  • Universal multifit outlet compatibility

Cons

  • Requires more space behind the basin than basic traps
  • More complex internal mechanism compared to simple P-traps
  • Installation can be slightly more time-consuming for beginners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the SR10V, ensure the basin tailpiece is clean and properly seated within the trap inlet nut. Use a high-quality thread sealant or ensure the compression washer is correctly oriented before tightening the multifit outlet onto the wall waste pipe. For maintenance, the design allows for easy disassembly to inspect the internal valve. Periodically flush the system with warm, soapy water to clear any small debris caught by the trap. Avoid using harsh chemical drain cleaners, as these can damage the internal components of the anti-syphon valve.
