Condensate trap with ball float AKS5

Condensate drain siphon – a reliable solution for your installation

This ball-type siphon, manufactured by Alcadrain (formerly Alcaplast), is a practical and effective solution for draining condensate from devices such as boilers, air conditioners, or dehumidifiers. Its versatility will be appreciated by both installers and end-users. The siphon design allows connection of up to three condensate sources, making it an ideal choice for more complex systems.

Functionality and construction

The siphon is designed for easy installation and reliable operation. Made of durable polypropylene, it is resistant to the chemical substances present in condensate. The key element is the ball, which prevents unpleasant odors from the sewer from entering the room. An additional holder for condensate pipes allows for aesthetic and safe routing of the pipes, without the need to connect them directly to the siphon – which facilitates visual control of any condensation. A 32 mm diameter connection ensures compatibility with most standard drainage systems.

Advantages in practice

• Versatility: The ability to connect up to three condensate-generating devices saves space and costs – instead of installing several individual siphons, one is sufficient.
• Prevention of unpleasant odors: The ball inside the siphon effectively blocks access to sewer air, eliminating the risk of unwanted smells entering the building.
• Easy installation: The simple construction and standard connection make installation easy even for less experienced people.
• Durability: The polypropylene body ensures long-term use without the risk of corrosion or mechanical damage.
• Convenient control: The hose holder allows easy monitoring of the water condensation level in the pipes.
• Proven brand: Alcadrain is a renowned manufacturer of sanitary fittings, known for the high quality of its products and long-standing tradition.

The AKS5 siphon is a solid and functional element of the installation, which will provide comfort and peace of mind to both installers and end-users. It is a product worth recommending due to its versatility, reliability and ease of installation.
