Dixon 2" bayonet dry disconnect coupler designed for compatible petroleum transfer systems.
The straight aluminum body uses a female NPT connection with Nitrile Rubber or FKM seal options.
Technical Specifications
Dry Disconnect Connection Configuration
The bayonet-style coupler connects with a compatible dry disconnect adapter and incorporates the valve mechanism used to control product transfer.
The straight coupler body terminates in a 2" female NPT connection for attachment to compatible threaded piping or transfer equipment.
Bayonet Dry Disconnect Coupler Design
Dixon designs its bayonet dry disconnect system for spill-reducing transfer of petroleum products such as fuel oil, lube oil blending, and tank-truck delivery. The coupling design helps reduce product loss during connection and disconnection.
Fluid cannot flow until the mating couplings are connected and the valve is opened. The coupler cannot then be disconnected until the valve handle has been returned to the closed position.
The BC-Series uses a straight coupler body with a female NPT outlet. This configuration is different from Dixon's BSS straight-swivel and BS 90° swivel bayonet coupler families.
Verify that the installation requires the fixed straight arrangement before ordering. Connection style should be confirmed along with nominal size and seal material.
Dixon offers the 2" straight coupler as BC61-200 with Nitrile Rubber seals and BC62-200 with FKM seals. The correct seal should be selected according to the transferred product and operating conditions.
Do not assume seal material from the 2" size alone. Confirm the exact part number and media compatibility before placing the coupler into service.
Dixon specifies a maximum operating pressure of 85 PSI at 70°F for these bayonet dry disconnect fittings. Dixon recommends contacting the manufacturer for pressure ratings at other temperatures.
The coupler is interchangeable with compatible Emco Wheaton™ Dry Break™ equipment. Verify mating-component compatibility, pressure requirements, connection size, and seal material before installation.
Installation & Selection Considerations
Confirm the required 2" size.
Select Nitrile or FKM seals.

Our product specialists can help review coupler size, BC61-200 or BC62-200 seal selection, female NPT connection, pressure requirements, and mating dry disconnect compatibility before you order.
