Thank you for purchasing this Marley Endura product.
The Grease Trap complete with Solids Basket will
improve the effectiveness and efficiency of grease reten-
tion as solids accumulation within an operation environ-
ment.
It is highly recommended that a solids basket be used in
conjunction with the grease trap, especially when food is
discharging into the drain line. A solids basket will help
prevent the grease trap from becoming clogged and will
help greatly to maintain its effectiveness.
Proper installation of a grease trap is critical to its efficient
operation. Even the best designed grease trap will not oper-
ate efficiently if installed incorrectly.
All installation recommendations are subject to the
approval of the local code authority having jurisdiction,
and it is highly recommended that installation of the
Grease Trap complete with Solids Basket be performed
by an accredited plumber as per SANS 10252 / 2.
The Marley Endura Grease Trap may be installed on the
floor, partially in the floor, or fully recessed below the floor to
best suit the situation. Whichever installation configuration is
used, make sure you locate the grease trap in an area that
allows for ease of maintenance.
Placement should allow the cover to be easily removed for
cleaning. A minimum clearance is required above the cover
of the grease trap (45-50cm) to allow removal of the internal
baffles for a complete cleanout. With the cover removed, all
internal surfaces should be visible.
Installations requiring long runs of pipe (exceeding 7.6m) to
reach the trap are to be avoided. This precaution will reduce
the possibility of the pipeline becoming clogged with grease
before reaching the grease trap. Grease waste lines should
be piped at a minimum slope of 6mm per 304mm to maintain
flow in the drain line.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Grease Trap complete with Solids
Basket will require regular servicing, and this will vary
depending on your particular foodservice operation and
kitchen management practices.
If for instance, there are significant amounts of solid debris
being discharged, the cleaning frequency could be as often
as daily. If in regular gravity drainage application, this may be
able to extend to as much as 1-2 weeks.
The recommended minimum service is at least weekly and
this is due to the rapid degradation of food debris in a wet
environment, which if left to deteriorate, will result in pungent,
foul odour during servicing and removal.

Complete with Solid Basket

As carefully as possible, remove the solids basket using the
black handles. Be sure to lift the basket vertically and with
equal pressure.
Allow excess water to drain over the grease trap. If necessary,
the basket can be stood on a flat surface but be aware that
remaining water will continue to drain from the collected solids.
Then move the solids basket to a waste receptacle/recycling
point.
To empty the captured solids, place a finger against the top
of the filter screen to prevent it from sliding out then turn the
solids basket on its side and tip the contents into the waste
container. Now remove the filter screen and wipe clean both
the solids basket and filter screen with a paper towel, rinsing
them as necessary to remove all accumulated debris. Warm
water, detergent and a small stiff brush is recommended.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Note: Some very fine debris may pass through the solids
basket and accumulate on the floor of the grease trap. This
together with the fat and oils should be cleaned and removed,
by an accredited waste removal company.

General Installation Guidance
Piping Connections
Installation Options
The Marley Endura Grease Trap will require at least 45-50cm
clearance above the tank to allow the solids basket to be
removed for cleaning. The tank is marked with ‘IN’ and ‘OUT’
above the respective connections.
Connections to the tank are
designed to receive 50mm or
75mm SSN couplings.
Dependent on the current
plumbing installation.
45-50cm
SSN Coupler
All Marley Endura Gease Traps are manufactured with no
hub connections. Standard mechanical joint (SSN) couplings
can be used to connect the grease trap to a metal or plastic
piping system. If the piping system needs to be resized, use
appropriate mechanical joint reducers, but do not decrease
pipe diameter across the unit.
Please Note: The Marley Endura Grease Trap is
made of Polypropylene, which is not compatible
with solvent weld cement.

Maintenance & Removal

Please note: When properly
installed, there will be a gap of
approximately 15cm between
the bottom of the solids basket
and the floor of the grease
trap. This is the correct opera-
tional location for the device. Approx. 15cm
Flow
Calculate Flow Rates
All grease traps must be cleaned regularly to maintain efficient
operation.
The frequency of grease and solids removal is dependent upon
a variety of factors; the type of food served, the capacity of the
grease trap and the quantity of grease in the water. Increasing
the frequency of cleaning will reduce odour problems associ-
ated with grease traps and improve retention efficiency.
To empty the Solids Basket, lift all the latches on the grease trap
cover into the upright position and open the grease trap.
Sink L x B x H = cm2
cm2÷ 1000 = Litres
Litres x 0.75(Factor) = Volume
Volume ÷ 60(Seconds) = Litres per Second
Formula: (LxBxH) ÷ 1000 x 0.75 ÷ 60 = ℓ /sec
For flow rates lower than or equal to 1.6ℓ /sec, use a MGT500.
For flow rates greater than 1.6ℓ /sec and up to 3.2ℓ /sec use a
MGT700.
