Product Description
The DIVERSITECH 5-408 is a 3/4-inch Schedule 40 PVC P-trap with slip x slip connections, designed for condensate drain lines, plumbing drain applications, and light-duty irrigation or agricultural piping systems. Constructed from Schedule 40 PVC, the fitting delivers smooth inner walls that minimize pressure drop and resist chemical attack and corrosion. The slip x slip end configuration accepts standard solvent-weld connections on both ends. With a maximum temperature rating of 140 degrees F, this trap is suited for the low-temperature condensate and drain service conditions common in residential and light commercial HVAC and plumbing installations.
This P-trap is appropriate for residential, industrial, and irrigation or agricultural applications where a 3/4-inch drain trap is required. HVAC technicians commonly use PVC P-traps on condensate drain lines to maintain the water seal that prevents negative pressure from drawing air backward through the drain system. Plumbers install this fitting in low-pressure drain and waste lines where PVC is the approved piping material. Its Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure and mechanical requirements for these service types.
Key Features
- Schedule 40 PVC construction resists corrosion and common chemicals found in condensate and drain service
- Smooth inner walls reduce pressure drop and minimize debris buildup
- Slip x slip end connections accept standard solvent-weld fittings on both sides
- 3/4-inch inside diameter suits standard residential condensate and small-bore drain lines
- Maximum temperature rating of 140 degrees F appropriate for condensate and cold-water drain service
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation P-trap for 3/4-inch slip-connect PVC drain and condensate piping systems in residential, industrial, and irrigation or agricultural applications.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the associated water supply or HVAC system and allow any residual flow to clear before removing an existing trap. Use a compatible PVC solvent cement and primer rated for Schedule 40 fittings on both slip ends, and allow full cure time before restoring flow. Do not exceed the 140-degree-F temperature rating.
