FACE MOUNTED (IN EXISTING CHANNEL WITHOUT RECCESSES)
Step 1: Initial assessment
Check that the concrete wall meets the requirements described in Section 4.
Verify that all installation materials specified on the GAD are available. Anchor bolts and grout are used for this
type of installation.
If the frame is made of aluminum, it is coated a special coating (PoliuretaneAP-3102-E distributed by Polifluor o
equivalent). If the frame is made of stainless steel, bolts that secure the vertical guides and seals must be greased
(on the outside) to avoid getting bonded to the concrete.
Step 2: Anchor the gate to the side of the channel
Position the unit in the existing channel. Make sure that the gate is perfectly aligned and centered in the channel
(see
Figure 6
).
Install the bottom anchor bolts, and then the lateral anchor bolts (see
Figure 7
). All Face Mounted Channel Gates
include lateral mounting
Step 3: Grout fill
Grout-fill the remaining voids (See
Figure 9
), both at the bottom (See
Figure 8
) and laterals of the gate (See
Figure
7
). Remember that the objective of the grout fill is twofold:
o
Fill the voids between the frame, frame invert and the channel.
o
Make a smooth transition for water flow.
