The Bray used to sell hand made stainless sediment traps. They are
certainly capable of a lot but will still flow over if the outlet is
restricted or slow. They have open tops but a top could be fitted to
them.

Hi Kate,
Go to www.brackers.com or call Cindy at Bracker's Good Earth Clays at
1-888-822-1982 and talk to Cindy Bracker. They carry The Gelco Trap,
however I don't know if they have one made for the heavy use such as you
require. Good Luck.
