Installation
5.2.5. Surface installation frame fi xed to the fl oor
Surface frames are mounted according to the installation drawing, with the help of distance guides supp-
lied with the delivery. If the inclination of the fl oor is very steep, it may be necessary to level the surface
frame closer to the horizontal by placing stainless steel spacers between the frame and the fl oor. This
will ensure that the adjustment range of the pillars is adequate.
Pieces of stainless steel plate should be used as spacers that are large enough and have a suitable hole
for the fi xing bolt. Washers or other small spacers are not allowed.
The fi xing bolts for the surface installation must be chosen according to the fl oor construction. A type
recommended is a UKA M10x150 chemical bolt, which suits various fl oor materials. The junction of the
surface frame and the fl oor is fi lled with fl ooring material or silicone mastic. To achieve the best result
regarding tightness, the installation frame should be fi lled up to the top level e.g. with acrylic fi ller after
the installation. The main points concerning the installation of the surface frame are shown in the picture
below.
1. Surface frame
2. Concrete casting
3. Fixing bolt for surface frame
4. Finished fl oor surface
5. Silicone mastic
6. Acrylic fi ller
Fixing bolts of the surface installation must be chosen according to the fl oor material. Recommended
type is a UKA 12x200 chemical bolt, which is suitable for different fl oor materials. Alternatively expansi-
on-shell bolts or equivalent can be used.
Place the kettle on the surface installation frame and adjust to a horizontal position with 4 adjusting bolts
which are in the corners of the pillars. When the kettle is in a horizontal position it must be fi xed to the
surface frame with the help of M12 fi xing bolts. The control pillar has 4 bolts and the support pillar has
2 bolts. Tighten the fi xing nuts carefully. Do not seal the space between the kettle pillars and surface
installation frames, as there must be enough change of air.
