PRODUCT CATALOGUE 3

Before Slot Drain®, grating, trench drains and four-sloped floors were the standards. Slot Drain® changed surface drainage forever by providing the first pre-sloped, prefabricated drain system.

The linear slot eliminates traditional grates that can be weak, trap bacteria and are difficult to clean, making Slot Drain® the most durable, sanitary and cost-effective drainage system available. It’s applicable wherever floor or ground surfaces are subject to fluids, or have frequent cleaning requirements. Most Slot Drain® applications are slab on grade, but it can also work in structural slabs and hollow core slabs. Slot Drain® replaces grated trench drains, with a self-cleaning system at a significantly reduced cost.

Slot Drain® was patented in 1988 and was the first floor drain on the market in North America to utilize the innovative prefabricated, pre-sloped and slotted concept, reducing construction labour costs. Since then, it has been installed successfully in hundreds of applications, satisfying customers and construction professionals alike.

Four-sloped floors, or contoured floors, are replaced with effective, low maintenance and low cost, two-sloped floors. Gone are the metal gratings and metal covers that are a nuisance to remove and clean.

Slot Drain® s available in stainless steel, fiberglass and galvanized steel, with T-Sections, 90° and 45° elbows to go around corners and other obstacles.

Without grating, Slot Drain® is perfect for high traffic and heavy traffic areas and processing facilities with frequent cleaning and inspection requirements.

Slot Drain® is made to suit your special requirements. Adaptations have been made to Slot Drain® to accommodate specific depth or flow requirements, drain lengths and handling of process water. Slot Drain® is available to be shipped worldwide and arrives fully assembled, ready to be installed.

Slot Drain® is a one-piece, built-in, sloped, open floor drain/surface drain system that is comparable in price yet superior in many ways.

SYSTEM DESIGN | PRODUCT CATALOGUE 29

The only part of Slot Drain® that is exposed to the room is the stainless steel surface which can be cleaned and sanitized as your floor is.

Slot Drain® does not absorb water or contaminants and allows contaminants to be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.

STRAINER BASKET

The strainer basket’s ½-inch perforated holes trap stones, keys, rings and other items that are smaller than the slot opening, that you want to intercept. Made of stainless steel, it is designed to last for the life of your system.

CATCH BASIN

Catch basins are designed to be receptacles for retrieving any items that may inadvertently go into the slot. A ¼ T304 stainless lid sits atop the base. Basins come in 8"›‹8", 12"›‹12" or 24"›‹24" wide and are typically 20" deep. The basins come with a reinforced cover made of T204 stainless steel with rebar tie-ins and can withstand heavy traffic loads.

SLOT DRAIN® INSTALLATION

Section 03

34 SLOTDRAINSYSTEMS.COM

NEW CONSTRUCTION

03.1 System Installation

It is a one-piece, built-in, sloped drainage system with a linear slot in the floor surface at a constant elevation. The drain itself is mounted in the floor assembly and integrated with the floor during the concrete pour. Forming, framing, welding and edging are all eliminated and screeding is reduced to two slopes instead of four.

Drain sections arrive fully assembled and ready to install — no grating to screw on, no anchors or drains to weld, simply bolt the drain ends together, then pour your floor.

It takes two people approximately 20 to 30 minutes to install one 15 foot section.

Slot Drain® is pre-sloped and fully assembled. It is easy to install, reducing labour costs and minimizing chances of error.

1) Excavate a trench allowing for room underneath and on both sides of Slot Drain®. There should be a minimum of 6" of concrete surrounding the drain.

2) It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down (using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before Slot Drain® is connected.

3) Install all Slot Drain pits and piping, making sure that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to prevent sidewall bowing.

4) Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain® to the Slot Drain® pit. If a Slot Drain® pit is not being used, start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections of Slot Drain® together using the numbered flanges as a guide. For example, if you have a section 102, a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain® pit. First, bolt flange 4 of section 304 to the Slot Drain® pit side marked 4. Next, bolt flange 3 of section 304 to flange 3 of section 203. Finally, bolt flange 2 of section 203 to flange 2 of section 102. Use a continuous bead of silicone sealant between all bolted sections.

5) Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of drain sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with the mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets.

6) Once Slot Drain® is secured and the appropriate elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the rebar from the floor grid into the rebar/leveling bars on the drain assembly. Cover the opening with the duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed.

7) To ensure that Slot drain will not float, it is recommended that the concrete be poured in two stages. Once adequate time for the first concrete pour to set has elapsed, the floor slab can be completed. The use of a pencil vibrator is strongly recommended to make sure that the concrete has completely surrounded Slot Drain®, leaving no bubbles or voids.

8) Once the concrete slab is firm, first remove the tape or Styrofoam from the slot and then break out all metal tabs to ensure a continuous open slot. Using the paddle, clean out the Slot Drain®.

Page 37: New Slot Drain Product Guide 2016

INSTALLATION | PRODUCT CATALOGUE 35

Slot Drain Systems arrives at the site in fully assembled sections and is ready to be installed.

1) Layout and mark drain location on existing slab.

2) Cut 24" wide trench in existing slab.

3) Excavate the trench allowing for room underneath and on both sides of Slot Drain®. There should be a minimum of 6" of concrete surrounding the drain.

4) Drill and dowel into the sides of the existing cut slab. Approximately 16"– 24" on both sides.

5) It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down (using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before Slot Drain® is connected.

6) Install all Slot Drain® pits and piping, making sure that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to prevent sidewall bowing.

7) Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain® to the Slot Drain® pit. If a Slot Drain® pit is not being used, start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections of Slot Drain® together using the numbered flanges as a guide. For example, if you have a section 102, a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain pit.

8) Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of drain sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with the mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets.

9) Once Slot Drain® is secured and the appropriate elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the rebar from the dowels and floor grid into the rebar/leveling bars on the drain assembly. Cover the opening with the duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed.

10) To ensure that Slot Drain® will not float, it is recommended that the concrete be poured in two stages. Once adequate time for the first concrete pour to set has elapsed, the floor slab can be completed.
