Intended use
Areas of use
The drain is used in the bathroom for a floor-level shower. It is designed for small to medium volumes of water, which occur in e. g. residential building.
Technical information, see Technical data .
Media
The drain is intended for draining of household-type wastewater in constant operation, see Regulations from section: Media .
The short-term temperature of the wastewater may reach up to 95° C. The temperature must be considerably lower in constant operation.
The pH value must be higher than 4 but lower than 10.
It is not permitted to introduce wastewater which would damage the product material.
Drainage capacity
The drainage capacity is dependent on the chosen installation height. The installation height is the distance from the drain to the flange.
Drainage capacity at an accumulation height of 10 mm above the grate: 0.75–1.05 l/s
Drainage capacity at an accumulation height of 20 mm above the grate: 0.8–1.1 l/s

Information for use
Sealing
Bonded sealing
To protect against moisture penetration, apply sealing foils, which are to be processed in liquid state, directly below the tiles on screed and walls. The determination of the stress class and the underground as well as the selection of the suitable bonded sealing must be carried out in compliance with the valid standards and regulations, see: Regulations from section: Sealing .
Fire protection
Advantix shower channels and drains can both be fitted to be fire proof. The R120 pipe lead-in can be used for this purpose in the floor construction. In this way, a fire resistance time of up to 120 minutes can be achieved.
Mounting instruction of the R120 pipe lead-in see model 4923.5, Art.-No. 491 673.
Required accessories
The grate is not included in the scope of delivery and can be ordered separately (see catalogue).
Handling
Assembly information
Important note
Before assembly:
Check if the drainage capacity of the model chosen is sufficient for the arising water volume Drainage capacity .
An adequate level of floor covering stability must be guaranteed Technical data . This can be achieved either through an adequate covering of screed or another alternative solution. Relevant measures must be considered before mounting.
During assembly:
Observe installation dimensions.
Do not use mounting adhesive older than 18 months.
Position the drain in such a way that the grate is removable.
After assembly:
The drain must be fully lined with mortar.
The sealing accessories should be given to the person responsible for the bonded sealing (e. g. tiler).
Coordinate all relevant installation details, especially regarding the bonded sealing, with those responsible for the subsequent work.

Care
Care tips
Normal soap or a mild cleaning agent can be used for regular care and prevention of lime scale on the grate and frame. Under no circumstances should scouring agent or scratching objects be used.
Strong stains, even around the drain unit and the siphon, can be removed using typical household cleaner. It should be noted that the cleaning agent should be rinsed off after the prescribed soaking time. There should be no residue on the components.
Clean
We recommend using a mild cleaning agent, a cloth and a washing-up brush for cleaning.
-
Remove grate, e. g. with removal tool model 4965.90, Art.-No. 689 704.
-
Clean grate and grate frame.
-
Clean drain.
-
Rinse with clean water.
-
Re-insert grate.
Disposal
