A KLS sandtrap is constructed of 6061 marine grade aluminum with an acrylic sight window. A KLS sandtrap can be used in gas and diesel applications.

The sandtrap can be easily mounted in the engine compartment. The standard height of the sand trap is 12” and requires minimal room for mounting. A larger version is available for commercial, diesel application.

A sandtrap is an essential part of the cooling system. It keeps sand and sediment out of the entire cooling system, the heat exchanger and the exhaust manifolds by using a centrifugal vortex to separate the sand form the water. This allows the sand to settle in the bottom of the trap where it can be easily seen and moved with the turn of a valve. Removal of and cleaning of the heat exchanger and cooling system can be expensive compared to the cost of and installation of a sandtrap.
