Overview

The ABB FG-DA-3/8 drain adapter is a 316 stainless steel component designed for UL Type 4X listed and NSF certified food and beverage drainage systems. This 1.38-inch-long adapter features a 0.75-inch diameter and 1/4-inch NPT thread for secure connection to drain adaptor assemblies where standard threaded connections are impractical. The adapter enables easy installation of a stainless steel ball valve, allowing operators to control and inspect drainage flow while maintaining wash-down area suitability by closing the valve. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, the FG-DA-3/8 resists corrosion in wet and chemically aggressive environments typical of food processing, beverage production, and pharmaceutical facilities. Its UL 4X listing ensures protection against corrosion, water ingress, and external impacts, while NSF certification confirms compliance with food safety standards. The adapter’s compact dimensions make it ideal for retrofitting existing systems or integrating into new installations where space is constrained. Compatible with standard NPT fittings, the FG-DA-3/8 simplifies drainage system modifications without requiring complex machining or welding. ABB Installation Products (SKU: FG-DA-3/8) delivers a reliable, code-compliant solution for hygienic and industrial drainage applications.
