The fire protection pipe lead-in is connected to horizontal drain pipelines from bathroom/floor drains or siphons.
It allows the lead in of the drainpipes through drill holes or floor openings. The floor must have a fire resistance class of F30–F120 and be at least 100 mm thick. Prerequisite for this is a minimum total floor thickness, including bonded screed or floor installation panels, of 150 mm.
Only drains which have an odour trap may be connected using the polypropylene pipe contained in the scope of delivery.
For tests of the fire behaviour and building inspection supervision, see Regulations from section: Application areas .

In the case of fire, a conventional drain and a drainpipe made of plastic will melt and drip away within just a few minutes. Then there is an opening between two storeys, through which fire can spread.
The fire protection pipe lead-in can resist fire for up to 120 minutes, without fire and smoke spreading through the ceiling. Because the fire protection element contains a mass, which swells up at 150 °C and closes the empty areas in the lead-in completely.
The mounting brackets hold the fire protection pipe lead-in in the ceiling, even if the lower part of the casting compound breaks away.
After 4 minutes
approx. 460 °C: The plastic pipe is becoming malleable.
After 8 minutes
approx. 625 °C: The plastic pipe is melted. The mass begins to swell and to fill the entire drill hole.
After 25 minutes
approx. 800 °C: Drill hole and connection are completely closed. The water trap remains largely in tact.
The pipe lead-in can be mounted in the following way:
in a floor recess
in a drill hole
The creation of a floor recess must be agreed with the following 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.
The pipe lead-in can be employed in floors at least 100 mm thick through drill holes, if the total floors thickness including bonding screed or floor installation panels is at least 150 mm.
Thinner floor thicknesses can be increased to a thickness of 150 mm by adding mortar strengthened with non-combustible floor installation panel (e. g. made of calcium silicate).
Mounting is allowed on or under the floor. Fastening must be carried out using end-to-end threaded rods ≥ M8.
If floor installation panels or concrete bases are to be used to reach the required fire resistance class, they must be at least 100 mm around the drill hole and laid at least 30 mm thick.
For drill hole:
Drill with drilling bit ∅ 100–122 mm
For floor openings:
control panel or similar for closing the floor opening from below
Empty pipe made of plastic, d 110
Mortar (MG II, IIa or III)
The model can be installed in a ceiling recess or a drill hole.
Create the floor opening.
a = approx. 150 mm
Close the floor opening from below (e.g. with a switch panel).
Place a plastic pipe in the middle of the recess.
a = d 110
Ensure that the upper edge of the empty pipe closes flush with the upper edge of the floor.
Fasten the empty pipe.
Encase the empty pipe up to the upper edge with MG II, IIa or III and allow to set.
Remove the casing after hardening.
Create the drill hole.
a = d 100–122
Remove the box.
Bend the bracket depending on the floor thickness.
Apply the lubricant to the seal ring and in the floor opening/drill hole.
Insert the pipe lead-in.
Push the drainpipe (3) supplied up to the middle of the coupling (4) into the pipe lead-in.
Extend with a second pipe (1) up to the upper edge of the floor.
Close the hollow space (2) with mineral fibre wool or mortar.
A suitable adapter must be used to connect to a pipe made of cast iron.
Connect pipe end to the wastewater pipe.
Fill in and attach the sticker supplied.
The pipe lead-in has been mounted.
The odour trap in the connected drain must be fully filled with water. Only then is the flawless functioning in case of fire guaranteed.
Separate the product and packaging materials (e. g. paper, metal, plastic or non-ferrous metals) and dispose of in accordance with valid national legal requirements.
If fire protection material is involved in a fire, there may be residues which need to be specially treated. After a fire, secure the services of a company specialising in disposal of fire-damaged materials.
