2.3.1 Installation variations
The mounting of the drain in a bare concrete floor is as follows:
nThe drain is placed in a floor recess and then cast-in.
During the mounting on the floor, the drain is integrated into the floor
construction. At the same time, it can e. g. be integrated into the level-
ling screed or heat insulation. If necessary, a vertical drain pipe can be
led through a drill hole in the floor at the same time.

NOTICE!
The creation of a floor recess must be agreed with the fol-
lowing people:
– a structural engineer
–the on-site fire protection inspector or the specialist
engineer for fire protection
If necessary, proof of compliance with building code or an
expert's report must exist.
2.3.2 Sealing
The drain can be sealed both conventionally as well as with bonded
sealing.
Depending on the type of sealing, you will require the relevant equip-
ment set
ÄChapter 2.4 ‘Required accessories’ on page 14 .
Product information
Advantix bathroom drain 9 from 25

The flange of the drain is intended for conventional sealing. To be able
to seal the drain conventionally, you require a suitable sealing cuff and a
clamping ring with which the cuff is secured ÄChapter 2.4 ‘Required
accessories’ on page 14 .
Fig. 3: Construction diagram of a conventional sealing
NOTICE!
Not suitable for floor-level showers
Conventional sealing is not recommended with floor-level
showers, because dampness can enter the screed and
damp proof layer.
The bonded sealing should be used in the case of floor-
level showers.
Principle
Conventional sealing occurs with sealing lanes made of bitumen or
EPDM. The sealing lanes are laid directly onto the bare concrete or heat
insulation. This process has proved itself to be particularly effective for
sealing balconies, patios, floor panels and cellar floors. In addition,
sealing lanes are often used as an additional second sealing layer below
the bonded seal.
The following components are required for the installation of a drain
with conventional sealing:
nDrain
nClamping ring with sealing cuff for EPDM and bitumen sealing lane
Information for processing
The sealing cuff is coated differently on both sides: EPDM/ Bitumen
The sealing cuff is placed on the drain and secured using the flange
ring. It depends on the sealing lane used which material layer of the
sealing cuff is placed upwards. You can find more information in the
instruction manual of the sealing flange.
Conventional sealing
Product information
Advantix bathroom drain 10 from 25

To protect against dampness, sealing foils which are to be processed
as liquids are applied directly below the tiles on screed and walls. The
provisions of the wear class, of the foundation and the choice of suit-
able bonded sealing must be carried out in acc. with
ZBD data sheet 1/2010 and in acc. with the guideline for bonded sealing
(BS).
Bonded sealing can be carried out with the help of a suitable stacking
element. You have the possibility to double seal, using conventional and
bonded sealing or only using bonded sealing.

Advantix bathroom drain 11 from 25

Careful planning is required for professional sealing. In addition,
depending on the individual dampness wear class and the type of foun-
dation, a suitable BS system with a building regulations certificate of
suitability must be chosen.
Furthermore, the following factors should be taken into account:
nDrain or shower channel must be equipped with a special flange,
which has an adhesive surface and a width of at least 30 mm
nTo enable the material change from drain to screed, either a suitable
sealing cuff or sealing strip, which is designed for overlapping with
the BS with a width of at least 50 mm must be used.
nThe screed must be laid at a minimum incline of 1–2 %.
nThe installation must be carried out properly in acc. with the installa-
tion manual and the manufacturer's information.

Only approved bonded seals with proof of practicability in keeping with
building law may be used with suitable drains, e. g.:
nfor the wear classes A and AO:
in accordance with ETAG 022 T1
nfor the wear classes A, B and C:
in accordance with DiBt Rule list A, Part 2 of the DiBt and the test
principles for bonded sealing (PG AIV-F)
nin acc. with DIN EN 14891:
"Liquid-applied impermeable products for use below ceramic tiling
boded with adhesives"
Information regarding the procedure can be found in the instructions for
use of the corresponding product.
2.3.3 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 con-
struction. In this way, a fire resistance time of up to 120 minutes can be
achieved.
Fig. 6: Example: Fire protection pipe lead-in
Mounting instruction of the R120 pipe lead-in see model 4923.5, Art.-
No. 491 673.
