(57) The present invention relates to an oil cut-off device for floor drains or similar. The oil cut-off device comprises a screening means (40) and a valve body (25) which are both located in a pipe member (6) of the floor drain. The screening means (40) is removably positioned in the pipe member (6) and has outwardly and downwardly directed support legs (51) which are adapted to engage lower, inwardly directed wall portions (14) of said pipe member (6) for determining the elevation of the screening means (40) in said pipe member (6). Thus, there is no need for covers as in prior art, which are designed for holding the screening means.
