Draining wastewater professionally Everything the specialist needs to know Drainage: how it works Dimensioning The outlet (Ø in mm) used for floor drains and drain pipes must be selected in such a way that the draining capacity corresponds to the occurrence of wastewater. Connection values of drainage fixtures and diameters for individual connection pipes are summarised in DIN 1986-100. According to this, the following values can be taken as a basis for floor drains: Floor drains Ø 50 = 1.0 l/sec. Ø 75 = 1.5 l/sec. Ø 110 = 2.0 l/sec. How it works: Drains are designed to receive, collect and...

Draining wastewater professionally Everything the specialist needs to know Different drains for different applications Every drainage project makes different demands on materials. In the public sector in particular, technical features such as flow rate, fire and sound protection or resistance to aggressive media play a major role. In the private sector on the other hand, the focus is more on the optical appearance. KESSEL supplies drains for all requirements and installation situations. Project drains Project drains are often used in industrial and public buildings. In most cases, drains...

Draining wastewater professionally Everything the specialist needs to know Wall drains are the latest trend in shower design. They are particularly suitable for barrier-free bathrooms since the unevenness which can occur through installation of a floor drain is no longer a problem. In addition, the Scada wall drain has four high quality drain covers made of stainless steel and optional LED lighting for a high degree of individual freedom in bathroom design. Basement drains are used for draining lower level components. They collect surface water and discharge this. In addition, further...

Draining wastewater professionally -Everything the specialist needs to know In rooms with a high moisture level, such as bathrooms, spas, washrooms or industrial kitchens in particular, high demands are made on waterproofing. The assumption that ceramic floors are watertight is often a mistake. The resulting decision to do without sealing measures frequently leads to unpredictable consequences such as, cracked joints, frost damage, mould formation or corrosion. For this reason, the EN 1253 standard requires a waterproofing seal to be installed under ceramic and natural stone floors in wet...

SmartSelect makes planning quite simply quicker - visit smartselect.kessel.com for the configurator for alternative waterproofing options. Shallow and lower waterproofing flange Used for waterproofing in all wet and damp rooms with seepage water and non-pressurised water from below. The shallow bed gasket used is applied above the screed with special ready-to-use and spreadable sealing materials in compliance with the ZDB information sheet. This is governed uniformly in the building regulations of all German states. The consequence of this is that structural works, such as bathrooms, need...

Draining wastewater professionally Everything the specialist needs to know Fire protection Fire-Kit fire protection insert (certification no. Z-19.17-1719) Fire protection Floor drains and barrier-free shower systems with non-combustible and combustible drain pipes installed in ceilings present a fire hazard, since the fire can spread to adjacent fire zones through the pipes. Construction measures are required here in particular in order to minimise the risk of any fire spreading. The German State Building Code defines the required fire resistance period in classes as follows: Fire...
