Basic safety notes

Intended use

The Geberit KSS-160, KSS-200 and KSS-315 welding plates may be used for butt-welding
connections of Geberit PE and Geberit Silent‑db20 pipes and fittings only:
• Geberit KSS-160 welding plate for Geberit PE and Geberit Silent‑db20 d32–160 mm

Any other use or a use extending beyond this is deemed to be improper. Geberit will not
accept any liability for any resulting damage.

presented by Geberit welding plates. They are therefore at risk of seriously injuring
themselves or others.
• Only skilled persons qualified in pipe installations are permitted to use Geberit welding
plates.
• Users must be conversant with – and adhere to – country-specific safety regulations.
• Users working with a Geberit welding plate for the first time must have been instructed by
