Installation instructions:
Make sure there is sufficient allowance for dimensions in line with
DIN 1988 section 300 and EN 806-3. DIN 1988 section 100
(protection of drinking water; preservation of drinking water qua-
lity) and EN 1717 (protection of drinking water against contami-
nants in drinking water installations) are to be observed.
Water qualities:
SCHELL shower fittings are suitable for use in drinking water
systems conforming to the German Drinking Water Ordinance of
2001. Depending on the system, there are sensitive parts within
the fittings that need to be protected against dirt particles and li-
mescale deposits. If necessary, back-wash filters and decalcification
systems are to be provided (water upwards of 10° dH). Approval
is needed to operate fittings with mineral waters where their
contents tend to flocculate, or which are particularly aggressive
towards metal materials.
General installation instructions:
Use corrosion resistant pipe materials. Only seal threads with per-
mitted sealants. Do not exceed permissible torque!
Rarely used fittings:
Choose pipe routing that will not allow for stagnating water to
collect (ring installation). If necessary, provide flush valves behind
the fittings. If using after longer periods of non-operation, let the
water drain; see „German Environmental Agency" (Umweltbundes-
amt) recommendation.
Protection against legionella:
If there is a risk of high legionella concentrations, measures must
be taken in accordance with DVGW worksheet W 551.
Take particular care with installations for people with weak immu-
ne systems.
Instructions for commissioning:
Prior to commissioning, all pipe lines are to be flushed in ac-
cordance with the ZVSHK (‚German Association for Sanitation,
Heating and Air Conditioning') worksheet DIN EN 806-4. Every fit-
ting is to undergo a pressure test after installation; where possible,
perform the pressure test with compressed air.
Fittings with thermostats:
The temperature setting for thermostats is to be checked; hot
water stop (38 °C ± 1 K).
WARNING: After removing the locking disc, water temperatures
can cause scalding. Do not remove the locking disc when the fit-
tings are used by people who are particulary at risk (care facilities,
kindergartens). Thermostat fittings have an anti-scalding protec-
tion feature complying with EN 1111.
Fittings with temperature limit device:
WARNING: no anti-scalding protection! The mixed temperature
ratio changes for increased hot water temperatures. If necessary,
provide central thermostats.
Mixers without thermostats:
Select operating temperatures for the hot water supply that will
not allow risk of scalding. If necessary, provide central thermostats.

Outdoor installation:
WARNING: Empty tap if there is a risk of frost! Remove the
functional components or permanently protect the fitting against
freezing with heat tape.
Notes on installation space:
Recommended installation dimensions are shown in the following
figure.
The dimensions should be adjusted to user needs as required (e.g.
for facilities primarily used by children).
