2. Housing
3. Height-adjustment screws
4. Empty pipe entry
5. Heavy current mounting support (equipment according to scope of delivery)
6. Cord outlet
7. Mounting protection cover

Mounting the floor socket

Note:
The floor socket can be adjusted to a maximum height of 135 mm (from the concrete floor to the top edge of the finished floor). If a greater height is required, then the height extension must be used.

Removing the mounting support:

1. Remove the hinged cover 1 .
2. Slacken the fastening screws slightly and remove the heavy current mounting support 5 .
3. Draw the drill holes on the concrete floor and drill them.
   

Lever out the empty pipe entries 4:
If required, lever out the pre-marked empty pipe entries 4 with a suitable tool (e.g. slotted screwdri- ver).

Mounting the floor socket:
Mount the housing 2 with suitable fastening materi- al (e.g. anchors and bolts) on the concrete floor.

Adjusting the height of the floor socket:
Adjust the height of the housing 2 to the planned top edge of the screed. Depending on the cover variant, the minimum installation depth must not be undercut. (Hmin1: cover with decor plate: 100 mm; Hmin2: cover with floor covering recess: 110 mm).

Fixing the installation pipes:
Insert the installation pipe max. 2 mm into the floor socket and fix it outside on the floor.

Laying the screed

ATTENTION

Risk of damage from screed!
The ingress of screed into the floor socket can lead to product damage!
Before screed laying, protect the floor socket with the mounting cover.

Note:
Before screed work, apply a separating layer to the housing of the floor socket, in order to reduce noise transmission.

Attaching the mounting protection cover:

1. Close the hinged cover 1 .
2. Attach the mounting protection cover 7 .
3. Apply the separation layer to the housing 2 .
   

Note:
When using the hinged cover with a floor covering recess, lay the footfall protection plate between the mounting protection cover and floor socket.

Laying the screed:
Lay the screed flush to the top edge of the mounting protection cover 7 and work it up to the floor socket.

Applying the floor covering and adjusting the height

ATTENTION

Risk of damage through joint mortar!
Contact between the floor socket and joint mortar leads to product damage!
When applying joint mortar to the expansion joint along the floor socket, the frame and cover must be protected against the joint material.

ATTENTION

Risk of damage from joint material/adhesive!
The ingress of the joint material/adhesive into the floor socket can lead to product damage!
Thoroughly clean the interior after floor covering work.

Removing the protective mounting cover:

1. Cut open the mounting protection cover 7 with a carpet knife.
2. Open the hinged cover 1 .
   

Applying the floor covering and adjusting the height of the floor socket:

ATTENTION

Risk of damage!
Adjustment of the floor socket to an excessive height can lead to product damage!
Only adjust the height of the floor socket to the maximum adjustment height (H max). Ensure a maximum of 135 mm (screed + floor covering).

1. Apply the floor covering, selecting the width of the expansion joint according to the floor covering and the permanently elastic joint material.
2. Adjust the height of the floor socket to the upper edge of the floor covering.

Inserting the plugs:

ATTENTION

Risk of damage through missing plugs!
Missing plugs can allow moisture and impurities to enter the height-adjustment sleeves, leading to product damage!
Insert the plugs into the 4 height adjustment sleeves.

Insert the supplied plugs into the threaded sleeves.

Filling the expansion joint:

ATTENTION

Risk of damage through insufficient expansion joint!
An expanding floor covering without a sufficient expansion joint leads to product damage!
Work the floor covering up to the floor socket housing with no tension. To achieve this, fill a sufficient expansion joint with permanently elastic joint material.

Fill the expansion joint around the floor socket with a suitable flexible, permanently elastic material (e.g. silicone).

Note:
With the hinged cover with floor covering recess, fill the expansion joint (approx. 3–5 mm) with a suitable flexible, permanently elastic material (e.g. silicone).

ATTENTION

Risk of damage from caustic cleaning agents!
Contact with cleaning agents containing acids/ chlorides (e.g. cement residue removers) will cause damage to the product!
Should the basic cleaning of the floor be carried out with these cleaning agents, we recommend that the cover should be removed during cleaning. Ensure that no moisture can ingress into the frame and housing.
Should the cover remain in the frame during cleaning, then all the components, including the interior, should be protected against the caustic cleaning agents (e.g. by widespread masking). Should the components come into contact with caustic cleaning agents, then they and the seals should be cleaned with clear water.

Performing the electrical installation

Inserting the connection cable:
Insert the connection cable of the socket 5 and strip the outer jacket up to the cable entry.

ATTENTION

Risk of damage through incorrect mounting!
Improper mounting can lead to product damage!
Strip the cables as far as possible, in order to guarantee the correct installation of the sockets.

Connect the socket:
Connect the socket 5 to the connection cable

Creating equipotential bonding:
Include the floor socket in the protective potentiality bonding.

Screwing the mounting support tight:

Note:
Make the cable into a loop to simplify the mounting of the mounting support.

1. Push the mounting support into the housing and then tighten the fastening screws.
   Note:
   The hinged cover can be opened/closed in all directions.

2. Close the hinged cover 1 .

Disposing of the floor socket

• Packaging as household waste
• Floor socket with scrap metal
• Comply with the local waste disposal regulations
