TRAP PRIMER
ROYAL FLUSHOMETER MODELS
(Features High Back Pressure Vacuum
Breaker)
• VBF-72-A1
• VBF-73-A1 with 2" (50 mm) Offset
REGAL FLUSHOMETER MODELS
• VBF-72-A2
• VBF-73-A2 with 2" (50 mm) Offset
The Sloan vacuum breaker trap primer provides a constant
water seal in a floor drain. Each time the flushometer is
activated, a small amount of water is diverted to the floor
drain to maintain the water seal. This seal prevents
objectionable sewer gases from escaping into the air.
Sloan VBF-72 and VBF-73 trap primer models are designed
to deliver a minimum discharge of 30 ml per flush when
used in conjunction with Royal or Regal 3.5, 1.6 or 1.28
gpf flushometers. The total amount of water diverted varies
directly with the number of flushes.
