Product catalog summary
Underfloor System for Polished Screeds

System Information:
The document outlines an underfloor system designed for jointless installation of cassettes in polished screeds, such as cement and poured asphalt. It highlights the system's design flexibility and economic advantages.

Jointless Installation:
This system integrates electrical access points without visible joints, using a cassette lined body tailored for polished screeds.

Use in Poured Asphalt Screed:
Poured asphalt screed is suitable for areas needing high heat protection, noise insulation, and elasticity, allowing immediate use after installation. The robust metal components of the cassette lined bodies support direct application of hot poured asphalt.

Use in Polished Cement Screed:
The system is applicable to cement screeds, including Terrazzo floors, ensuring seamless integration and enhancing the aesthetic of electrical access points.

System Structure:
The system features surface-flush, jointless cassette installation, with the screed layer supporting edge loads. The underfloor box is installed flush with the insulating layer and covered by a separating layer.

Mounting and Polishing:
Underfloor boxes are mounted according to planning specifications, forming a grid with underfloor ducts. The cassette lined body is mounted floating on the underfloor box, and the screed is polished for an even surface.

Product Specifications:
Specifications include details for underfloor boxes, mounting lids, and height-adjustable cassettes, with dimensions, weights, and material information.

Conclusion:
This underfloor system provides a sophisticated solution for integrating electrical installations into polished screeds, enhancing functionality and aesthetics in modern interior architecture.

Specifications:
The document details components for height-adjustable cassettes and tube bodies made of stainless steel, specifically grade 304, with nominal sizes, dimensions, and weights for models like RKFR2 and RKNEV2. The cassettes are designed for both dry and wet-cleaned floors.

Components and Models:
- RKFR2 9 V20 and RKFR2 9 V25 have a nominal size and dimension 'h' of 110 mm, weighing 380 kg per 100 pieces.
- Height adjustment units RKNEV2 are available in heights from 110 to 270 mm, with weights from 25.2 to 45.8 kg per 100 units.

Materials:
Components are primarily made of V2A stainless steel and electrogalvanised materials. Tube bodies are available with or without handle clamps, made of V2A stainless steel and zinc die-cast.

Installation and Usage:
Guidelines are provided for installing height-adjustable cord outlets in RKF frame cassettes and RKFR/RKFN cassettes, designed to be flush with the floor when not in use and suitable for wet-care floors.

Planning Checklist:
Key planning considerations include matching floor structure with architectural requirements, ensuring structural physics requirements like load capacity, inter-unit matching, and specifying spacing between underfloor sockets.

Poured asphalt screed is used where there are high requirements for heat protection, noise insulation and the elasticity of the floor covering. This screed type does not require drying times: The floor is ready for use shortly after laying. The components of the cassette lined bodies are made from robust metal. The hot poured asphalt screed can therefore be worked directly onto the cassette frame and the cassette lined body.
