Installation Instructions

Sanitary ﬁtter

MOUNTING THE SHOWER TRAY

Note I: Use only two-component PUR

foam (observe manufacturer‘s instruc-

tions). Let the shower tray rest until the

PUR foam has cured. Curing of the PUR

foam takes longer in the absence of air.

Two-component PUR foam is among other

things highly inﬂammable. During applica

tion and curing, sufﬁcient ventilation is

to be ensured. No open ﬂame should be

used in the entire area.

Note II: Do not lay the earthing cable

through the PUR foam or across the FR

5300.

Note III: Make sure that the rubber sup-

porting pads do not slip when placing the

shower tray in position.

Note IV: The shower tray has to rest

planely on the FR 5300 and must not tilt.

Note V: The mounting guidelines and the

instructions of the siphon manufacturer

must be observed.

• Put up the enclosures fabricated from the end strips of the card

board box (A, alternatively MAS 5305 - see page 8) in the FR 5300

(if the shower trays are larger than 90 cm).

• Pile-up two-component PUR foam in the enclosure (A) at an ex

cessive height (see note I).

• Connect the equipotential bonding (see note II).

• Place the shower tray in position and align it parallel to the tiles

with a gap of approx. 2 mm (see notes III/IV).

• Fasten siphon (see note V).

SEALING OF THE JOINT EDGES

• After all work has been completed and the PUR foam completely

hardened, the joint edges can be sealed with the corresponding

ﬂexible sealant.

• Put a weight of approx. 50 kg (e.g. bags of cement) on the show-

er tray during the sealing work (see note I).

• Seal maintenance joint with sealing material (e. g. silicone,

acrylic) and let it rest until the sealing material has hardened

completely (see manufacturer‘s instructions).

A = Wall tile with tile adhesive

B = Floor tile with tile adhesive and end rail

C = Maintenance joint (sealing material)

D = Shower tray

E = Noise-damping strip

To guarantee an adequate sound insula

tion, any contact between the FR 5300

components, the shower tray and the

structural elements must be avoided.

Suitable damping strips (E, not included

in the supply) should be used, if neces-

sary.

Note I: Protect the surface of the shower

tray from damage (e.g. by lining it with

clean cardboard).
