20 Litre Grease Trap
The EPX20 20 litre grease trap is a compact grease management solution designed for smaller sinks and food preparation areas where space is limited. Manufactured from durable epoxy-coated steel, it can be installed indoors or outdoors and provides a simple, cost-effective way to prevent fats, oils and grease (FOG) from entering the drainage system.
With a 14 litre-per-minute flow rate, 50mm inlet and outlet connections and a compact footprint, the EPX20 is best suited to one small sink and lighter-duty applications.
For larger sinks, higher water flow or busier commercial kitchens, a larger grease trap may be required. If you’re unsure which size you need, use our grease trap selector or call us on 0151 329 3000.

Compact Grease Trap for Smaller Installations
The EPX20 is designed for applications where a larger commercial grease trap isn’t necessary or where available installation space is restricted. Its compact dimensions make it particularly useful for small kitchens, food preparation areas and single-sink installations.
Unlike stainless-steel models intended primarily for indoor use, the EPX20’s protective epoxy-coated steel construction also makes it suitable for outdoor installation, providing greater flexibility when there isn’t enough room beneath or alongside the sink.
Choosing the Correct Grease Trap Size
Correct sizing is important for effective grease separation. A grease trap that is too small for the amount of wastewater passing through it may not provide sufficient retention time for fats, oils and grease to separate effectively.
The EPX20 has a flow rate of 14 litres per minute and is intended for lighter-duty applications with a small sink. If you’re connecting a larger sink, multiple sinks, a dishwasher, combi oven or other catering equipment, you may require one of our larger grease traps.

Indoor or Outdoor Installation
The EPX20 can be installed indoors or outdoors, giving you flexibility when deciding where to position your grease trap.
It features 50mm inlet and outlet connections and is compatible with standard multi-fit rubber connectors. The sealed lid helps contain odours while the single-bolt opening provides straightforward access for routine inspection and cleaning.
The unit should remain accessible after installation so that accumulated grease and food solids can be removed as part of a regular maintenance schedule.
Simple, Cost-Effective Grease Management
The EPX20 is a passive grease trap, meaning it requires no electricity, pumps or replacement filters during normal operation.
Wastewater enters the trap and slows sufficiently for lighter fats, oils and grease to separate and collect within the unit rather than continuing into the drainage system.
Regular inspection and cleaning are essential to maintain performance. Cleaning frequency will depend on usage, so we suggest checking the trap regularly after installation until an appropriate maintenance schedule has been established.
UK Commercial Kitchen Grease Management
Grease traps help commercial kitchens manage fats, oils and grease before they enter the wastewater system and can form an important part of a site’s drainage and grease-management arrangements.
The EPX20 is a compact option for lighter-duty applications. Requirements can vary according to the installation, connected appliances and local wastewater authority, so if you’re unsure whether the EPX20 is suitable for your premises, check with your wastewater authority or speak to us before ordering.
