Valve Vernay for Drum Cover

Drum Covers provide an inexpensive way to convert open–top 30– and 55–gallon steel drums into fire–safe receptacles for combustible trash. Only a screwdriver and wrench are needed to attach the cover to a drum, and it can easily be removed when the drum must be emptied. Covers are steel, with a highly chemical–resistant powder coat paint finish. 30–gallon cover will fit drums nominally 18.375" diameter. 55–gallon size will fit drums from 22.5" to 22.75" diameter. On models 26730 and 26750, a replaceable fusible–link assembly inside the cover melts at 165°F to automatically slam the cover shut if there is a fire in the drum to extinguish the flame. To control vapors when disposing of solvent soaked rags and wipes, model 26752 offers a gasketed, latched lid to seal the drum preventing vapor release. A vent is provided to relieve pressure build–up under elevated temperatures, between 3 and 5 psig.
