INSTALLATION GUIDELINES A. DRAINAGE CHANNEL 1. Remove any gratings and clamping frames from channel. 2. Taking care not to twist, turn the channel upside down (base uppermost). 3. If there is more than one section to the channel, apply silicone sealant to jointing flange faces or fit rubber gaskets if supplied, and securely bolt sections together. 4. If connecting to a Wade gully, follow the instructions supplied. 5. Taking care not to twist, turn the channel the correct way up and lower it into the trench and into any installed gullies: ensure top edge of channel is flush with finished floor level, use the adjustment legs when supplied. 6. Bend the build-in ties as necessary. 7. Make the pipework joints below the channel. Note: After positioning the channel it is recommended that a water test be undertaken to check that height is correct, that, where applicable, the fall in the channel works effectively, that there are no leakages from the channel system and that there are no signs of deformation or of damage to the channel which may have occurred during installation. At this stage it may still be possible for any necessary rectification work to take place. Please consult our Technical Services Dept. if this situation arises. 8. lf not supplied, provide and insert spacer bars across channel at approx. 500mm centres. Spacer bars prevent channel being squeezed while backfill is being compacted and must not be removed until backfill is set. 9. Fix the channel into position by first grouting build-in ties and any adjustment legs firmly in place. B. DRAINAGE CHANNEL PROFILE SVF- FOR USE WITH FLEXIBLE SHEET FLOOR COVERING The following additional notes / procedures apply: 1. Dress floor covering into channel and fix in accordance with flooring manufacturer's instructions. 2. Fit clamping frames and gratings. C. DRAINAGE CHANNELS WITH PERIMETER ANGLE FRAME The following additional notes / procedures apply: 1. The gap between the outside edge of the channel and the angle frame is covered with an adhesive tape to prevent debris filling up the gap during installation. Do not remove the tape until installation is complete. 2. When the channel is installed,lay the floor into the perimeter angle frame. 3. Once the floor is set, carefully remove the spacer bars between the angle frame and the channel using an angle grinder or similar. Note: Do not remove the spacer bars before fitting the channel, as it would then be impossible to 20
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES 10. Taking care not to damage show surfaces, place heavy weights on top of the channel prior to pouring backfill to prevent any lift or movement. 11. Backfill around the channel ensuring that backfill material flows evenly under and around the channel such that no voids are formed. 12. Remove immediately any material which falls into the channel. 13. When backfill is set, remove spacer bars. 14. Fit gratings. 15. Clean channels and gratings with water and a suitable cleaning agent where necessary. Under no circumstances use metal scouring pads or wire wool as these will contaminate surfaces. maintain the position of the frame relative to the channel. 4. Thoroughly clean the gap between the channel and angle frame, degrease and fill with a permanently elastic expansion joint sealant. If corrosive chemicals are likely to be present, consult sealant manufacturer on suitability. D. SUPASLOT CHANNELS The following additional notes/ procedures apply. 1. The slot is covered with an adhesive tape to prevent debris falling into the channel during installation. Do not remove the tape until installation is complete. 21

MATERIALS / CARE AND MAINTENANCE Materials and finish of Wade gratings and channel, described below, are selected to provide lasting performance and to blend with surroundings. The products require the minimum of maintenance, but periodic inspection should be carried out to ensure absence of matter which could impede drainage. Measures set out below will sustain appearance and prolong service life. STAINLESS STEEL - AUSTENITIC GRADE 304 Used for channels, gratings, gullies, filter buckets and funnels. A corrosion-resistant metal containing significant amounts of nickel and chromium. Clean with soap and warm water rinse and wipe dry. Gratings may also be cleaned in certain dishwashers. Under no circumstances treat with metal scouring pads, metal scrapers or wire wool as these will contaminate surfaces leaving rust spots. NICKEL BRONZE - BS EN 1982 Satin finish Used for gratings. A cast alloy with a fine grain effect which blends well with most floor finishes. The satin finish is generally maintained by the slight abrasive action of passing traffic. In unused areas the material will gradually tarnish. To restore lustre, apply a plain nylon scouring pad (not soap-filled) in the direction of the grain. POLISHED BRONZE - BS EN 1982 Used for gratings. A cast alloy suited for finished floors where the rich, bronze colour complements the decor. The "mirror" finish is produced by polishing. If left alone polished bronze will gradually tarnish. To restore lustre, use metal polish and buff with a cloth. The mirror finish must not be treated with any abrasive cleaning material otherwise the surface will be permanently scratched. DUCTILE IRON - BS EN 1563 + 1564 Used for gratings. A casting with the ductility of steel, yet with more than twice the tensile strength of cast iron. A zinc anti-corrosion coating is applied by galvanising or sherardizing. CAST IRON - BS EN 1561 Used for gratings and gullies. A widely used metal in the drainage industry, its resistance to corrosion permits extended use under extreme conditions. Castings are coated with a high grade lacquer paint, applied by full immersion dip, to provide internal and external surface coverage. Paint will gradually wear off and is replaceable; oxidisation (surface rusting) is a natural process which does not weaken the material. A zinc anti-corrosion coating is applied to certain castings by galvanising or sherardizing. CAST ALUMINIUM - LM6 Used for gratings An alloy chosen for its chemical resistance and durability NYLON 6 Used for filter bucket Chosen for its toughness and durability LOAD RATING CLASS This catalogue shows the load rating class for each grating based on BS EN 1433, as follows: A 15 - Areas which can be used only by pedestrians and pedal cyclists. B 125 - Footways, pedestrian and comparable areas, private car parks and car parking decks. C 250 - Kerbsides - maximum of 0.5 m into the carriage way and a maximum of 0.2m into the footway. The selection of the appropriate class is the responsibility of the designer; where there is any doubt the stronger class should be used.
