Classification of Stainless Steel Floor Drains

The stainless steel floor drain can ensure indoor air clean, and the one with good quality can effectively block the odor.

There are many kinds of stainless steel floor drains on the market, but few can be effective. In this blog, we will introduce its classification for your reference.

Classification of stainless steel floor drain

Traditional water seal floor drain

Advantages: cheap and widely used for the self-contained products of hairy embryo house builders.

Disadvantages: poor self-cleaning ability, easy to block and difficult to clean; Slow drainage speed

Eccentric block type lower flap floor drain

A sealing gasket is used, one side is fixed with a pin, and a lead block is added. The principle of gravity eccentricity is used to seal. This structure was initially horizontal. Later, it evolved into vertical and vertical with water seals. When draining, the gasket is opened under the action of water pressure. After the drainage is completed, the gasket is closed under the gravity of the lead block.

Spring type floor drain

Seal by stretching the gasket at the lower end of the sealing core with a spring. When there is no water or little water in the floor drain, the sealing pad is stretched upward by the spring to close the pipe. When the water in the local leakage reaches a certain height and the gravity of the water exceeds the spring force, the spring is pressed downward by the water. Then, the gasket is opened and the water is drained automatically.

Magnet type floor drain

The structure of this floor drain is similar to the spring type. Use the magnetic force of two magnets to attract the sealing gasket for sealing.

When the water pressure is greater than the magnetic force, the sealing gasket will be opened downward for drainage. And the drainage will be completed.

When the water pressure decreases and is less than the magnetic force, the magnet block is attracted. And the sealing gasket is pulled up.

Gravity floor drain

No water seal, no spring, magnet and other external forces are required. Only the balance between the gravity of the water flow and the floating ball inside can be used to open and close cover plate.

This mode is similar to the spring type, except that the elastic force is converted into buoyancy to drive the mechanical tension.

Silicone floor drain

Seal with two thin pieces of silica gel or a silica gel bag with an open bottom. During drainage, the bottom of the silica gel is washed away by water.

After drainage, the bottom of the silica gel will automatically fit due to elastic force, so as to achieve the odor prevention effect.
