2.2 Intended use
2.2.1 Areas of use
The drain is designed for small to medium volumes of water, which
occur in e. g. residential building.
Technical information, see
ÄChapter 2.3.2 „Technical data“ on page 8 .
The drain is a reconstruction model, which due to its low height can also
be integrated into a very low floor construction without having to make a
drill hole. For this reason, mounting always takes place on the raw con-
crete floor.
The water seal level of 25 mm and the small drainage
capacity do not meet the specifications pursuant to the
standards and regulations. See Ä„Regulations from sec-
tion: Fields of application“ on page 6.
Check if the drainage capacity is sufficient before mounting!
2.2.2 Media
The drain is intended for draining of household-type wastewater in con-
stant operation, see
Ä„Regulations from section: Media“ on page 6 .
nThe short-term temperature of the wastewater may reach up to
95° C. The temperature must be considerably lower in constant
operation.
nThe pH value must be higher than 4 but lower than 10.
It is not permitted to introduce wastewater which would damage the
product material.
2.2.3 Drainage capacity
Drainage capacity at an accumulation height of 10 mm above the grate:
0.5 l/s
Drainage capacity at an accumulation height of 20 mm above the grate:
0.55 l/s

Product information
Advantix Advantix bath drain 62 mm, (reconstruction model) 8 from 21

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 drainpipe 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.

2.4.2 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:
Ä„Regula-
tions from section: Sealing“ on page 6 .
The bonded seal can be applied directly onto the drain flange.

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.
nFor bridging the material change from drain to screed, either a suit-
able sealing collar or sealing tape designed for overlapping with the
BS over 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
mounting instructions and the manufacturer's information.

2.4.3 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. 5: Example: fire protection pipe lead-in
Mounting instruction of the R120 pipe lead-in see model 4923.5,
Art.-No. 491 673.
2.5 Required accessories
Advantix tops are available in a number of sizes and variations. You can
also only buy an Advantix top frame and then purchase a suitable
designer grate separately (see catalogue).

The drain can be fitted with a sieve insert (model 4958) to collect dirt.
Advantix drains can be equipped with an additional odour barrier, which
also closes the drain odour-tight, if the water seal in the odour trap has
evaporated. Odour nuisance is even avoided with drains that are only
seldom used. Odour barriers can be found in the catalogue.

Requirements:
nThe drain is connected.
nThe protective foil and the yellow protective plugs are to be found,
undamaged, on the drain.
Position odour trap onto the bare concrete ceiling.
Check the correct seating of both O-rings on the flange.
Push the flange into the drain unit as far as it will go.
Position the drain at the desired height at the place of use.
Depending on planning, the drain can be integrated into concrete,
screed or a heat insulation layer, for example. It is important that the
upper edge of the drain flange is flush with the upper edge of the
sealing layer. If necessary, raise or lower the drain in the existing
floor using suitable material.
Align drain horizontally using a spirit level.
Secure the drain in such a way that it cannot shift when the subse-
quent works are applied.
Most importantly, it must be ensured that the drain does not float
when the concrete or screed is poured in.

top.
Cut the top to the marked height.
INFO! No backflow seal may be fitted so that any seepage that
may occur can drain off without hindrance!
Remove yellow protective plug.
Place the top into the drain and align according to the tiles.
Work the top into the screed or the floor covering.
3.3 Care
3.3.1 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 circum-
stances 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.
3.3.2 Cleaning the drain
We recommend using a mild cleaning agent and a washing-up brush for
cleaning.
