English term or phrase: 'u' trap

Ik vermoed dat hier een soort sifon bedoeld is, maar hoet dat precies in het Nederlands? De hele zin: "It is therefore necessary to ensure that the unit is placed on a level plinth so that the condensate water can run away with adequate fall to waste ie.½" per foot min and must incorporate a 'u' trap as to not overflow the edges of the drip-tray inside the machine." Bij voorbaat dank voor de hulp!

Explanation:
Is natuurlijk niet helemaal een U, maar volgens mij bedoelen ze dit.
Ik denk dat een sifon wat anders is overigens (zie url)... maar ben geen klusser -:))

waterslot

Explanation:
Men lijkt een waterslot te bedoelen, de uitvoering kan wat wisselend zijn, maar wat dat precies met de de overflow te maken ontgaat mij, net als Hans, ook enigszins.
