Description
Engineered to connect.
Built to perform.
Dixon DMH20DR20 — Drum Thread Adapter Dixon DMH20DR20 is a drum-thread adapter for gravity discharge. A gasketed male NPSH thread connects to a drum with female NPSH, while the male NPT end connects to compatible female-NPT equipment such as the described ball-valve arrangement for discharge.
Match drum and valve threads
Match NPSH drum and NPT valve threads independently. The gasketed adapter is identified for gravity discharge, not an assumed pressure-transfer application at the drum.
Selection & Installation
Fit: Match the gasketed NPSH drum end and NPT valve end to their respective connections.
Check: Verify gasket compatibility for gravity discharge rather than assuming a pressure-transfer drum application.
