When you're sorting out warewashing sanitation grease capture, the first decision is location. Do you need a replacement component inside an existing ventilator system, or an interceptor under a sink that separates oil from water before it reaches the drain? These four products cover both sides of that problem, and each is listed as a new unit.
Quick take
- Accurex 475538 for a component-level replacement without absorber.
- Dayton 48C174 for ventilator-side grease collection.
- 50L interceptor for under-sink oil-water separation.
- 8lb steel interceptor for a higher-flow steel unit.

Product notes
Accurex Assembly, Grease Trap Without Absorber 475538
The Accurex 475538 is a new grease trap assembly without an absorber, listed at $79.99. It comes with model number 475538 and a US country of origin, and the product name identifies it as a genuine OEM replacement. It is aimed at professional settings including medical, lab, and dental applications. That makes it a component-level choice: if you already have an Accurex system that needs a replacement part, this is the model-specific unit. The limitation is that it is a component rather than a standalone separator, and it arrives without an absorber, so it won't handle the full oil-water separation job on its own.
Dayton 48C174 Grease Trap Collector Box
The Dayton 48C174 is the lowest listed price in this group at $62. It's a grease collector box made for upblast roof ventilator systems, meaning it handles grease on the exhaust side rather than the drain side. For a restaurant or food-service kitchen with an upblast roof ventilator, this is the focused replacement part: a new unit in quantity 1. The limitation is that it won't do the job of an under-sink oil-water interceptor. If your need is on the wastewater line rather than the ventilator, this collector box is not the right category.
50L Grease Trap Interceptor Oil-water Separator
The 50L plastic interceptor is listed at $70.15 and is the under-sink/freestanding option in this set. It has a 50L/13.21gal capacity, a listed flow rate of 2.1 t/h (4,629.71 lbs/h), and the package includes a drainage pipe, sealing ring, and a pair of gloves. The plastic construction makes it lighter than the steel option, but the trade-off is material. It also has a 4.5cm inlet and 3cm outlet, so your existing drain connections need to match those sizes. For an under-sink separation setup with a large tank, this is the direct fit.
8lb Commercial Steel Grease Trap Interceptor
The 8lb steel interceptor is the highest listed price in the group at $269.95. It is the only unit here with a stated flow rate of 4 GPM and the only one whose product name includes PDI approval. The unit is built from commercial carbon steel with an 8 lbs capacity and a 17-by-11-inch footprint. If a faster flow rate and steel construction are your priorities, this is the unit that matches. The limitation is budget: $269.95 is $207.95 above the lowest listed item in this comparison. It's a bigger investment for a higher-flow steel interceptor.
Final recommendation by use case
- For under-sink oil-water separation with a large tank, start with the 50L interceptor because its listed package includes the separator, drainage pipe, sealing ring, and gloves.
- For a direct replacement inside an existing Accurex system, the 475538 assembly is the model-specific component to compare.
- For ventilator-side grease collection, the Dayton 48C174 is the purpose-built collector for that exhaust-side job.
- For a higher-flow steel interceptor, the 8lb commercial unit is the one to weigh.
