Explanation: IMO autor użył nieodpowiedniego określenia.
Syfon http://goo.gl/iwlKQ chroni przed przedostawaniem się nieapetycznych zapachów z kanalizacji do mieszkania.
Syfon do do wody sodowej jest poza zakresem tego pytania.
Nie znam innych znaczeń wyrazu "syfon".
Wąska cieśnina spowalnia przepływ wody w obydwie strony, czyli działa jak kryza = orifice.
Sugeruję dopytać autora, co miał na myśli.
