The inner wall is disposed radially inward from the outer wall and forms a main flow channel through a portion of the body. The helical wall extends between and is connected to the outer wall and the inner wall and forms a helical passageway fluidly connected to the inlet and the outlet. The helical passageway includes a plurality of turns along a bottom of the body. One of the catchment areas is disposed in each turn of the helical passageway. The scuppers are disposed in the catchment areas and are connected to and extend radially inward from the outer wall.
