The invention relates to an adapter for a drain device (100) that is provided for installation in an opening (12) of a floor panel (10) and wherein the drain device (100) comprises:-a receptacle (40) for the installation in the floor panel (10) with an upper inlet opening (13) through which waste water can flow into the drain device (100),-parts which can be preassembled in the floor area and which can be connected in a fluidic manner to a drain pipe (16) and the receptacle (40), so that waste water which has passed through the inlet opening (13) can enter the drain pipe (16),Such adapters are used to connect a drain body installed in a floor surface with an adjoining piping system. Prior art adapters have sealing lips which, when the drain device 100 is assembled, rest against the drain pipe 16 and thus create a seal. The pressure exerted by the seal on the drain pipe depends on the seal material and the tightness of the fit. In order to improve the sealing function, it is proposed that the adapter (200) comprises the following components:-a base part (20) having an inner thread (54), wherein the base part (20) comprises a first coupling point (41) to the drain pipe (16) and a second coupling point (42) to the receptacle (40) and couples the receptacle (40) to the drain pipe (16) in the assembled state,-a sealing ring (43) that can be installed in the base part (20) to seal the adapter (200) from the drain pipe (16),-a compression ring (44) with a outer thread (55) compatible to the inner thread (54) of the base part (20) for exerting a compressive force on the sealing ring (43),
