RAUPIANO PLUS is a versatile sound-insulating drainage pipe system for

non-pressurised site drainage in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.2. It can
be used as drainage system for all building types from one-family houses
to large buildings.
RAUPIANO PLUS is available in nominal diameter DN 40 to DN 200.
A comprehensive fitting, adaptors and bracket range complete the system.
They are characterised by the following features:
2.1.1 Residential buildings

RAUPIANO PLUS is a versatile system for non-pressurized drainage
systems which are installed according to AS/NZS 3500.2. It is able to
comply with the requirements of Building Code of Australia (BCA) for
different types of residential buildings, such as:
- One-family houses
- Multi-storey apartment blocks
- Condominiums
2.1.2 Commercial buildings
- Excellent sound-insulation properties

- Mineral-filled material for pipes and fitting to reduce air-borne noise
- Partially thickened walls for bend fittings to improve air-borne
insulation
- Special sound-dampening bracket to reduce transmission of
structure-borne noise
- Fast and easy installation
- The joint is designed to absorb any thermal expansion
- High quality product
- Excellent impact resistance - robust for transport, storage and
handling at construction site
- High UV-resistance, can be stored outdoor for 1 year
- Smooth yet abrasion-resistance inner layer to reduce risk of deposits
and scaling
- Green material, non-toxic material without halogen
RAUPIANO PLUS, with its special acoustic characteristics, can also

be installed in commercial buildings that require stricter acoustic
requirements such as:
- Hotels
- Office buildings
- Hospitals
RAUPIANO PLUS meets the increasing need for peace and quiet and
ensures a high level of living comfort.
The pipe dimensions in accordance with AS/NZS 7671 allow trouble-free
transition to HT-PP which is manufactured according to EN 1451 or EN
1401 with pipes and fittings of the same nominal diameter without the
need for special transition/adaptor pieces.
Work clothing
- Wear protective glasses, suitable work clothing, safety shoes, a
protective helmet and, if you have long hair, a hair net.
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. They could be caught by
moving parts.
- Wear a protective helmet when performing assembly work at head level
or above your head.
2.1.3 Commercial kitchens
2.2
Application
RAUPIANO PLUS is ideal for use as a collecting and ground pipe for
drainage of greasy waste water from commercial kitchens up to the
grease separator.
If used in cold areas, where installations are commonly done under

temperature below -10C, additional tests are required according to
AS/NZS 7671.
RAUPIANO PLUS has passed the test and therefore marked with the ice
crystal according to AS/NZS 7671 and DIN EN 1411 and can be installed
in these regions.
Impact-resistant and shockproof

outer layer made of PP
Abrasion-resistant and low

friction inner layer made of PP
For grease separators at a great distance, the use of pipe trace heating
may be necessary. This prevents premature grease accumulation. The
temperature of the pipe trace heating suitable for plastic pipes may not
exceed 45C.
For outlet of ventilation lines, use pipes suitable for outdoor installation
instead of RAUPIANO PLUS.
Highly rigid and sound-insulating middle
layer made of mineral-reinforced PP
Fig. 2-1
RAUPIANO PLUS pipes and fittings.
The sound-insulating drainage system RAUPIANO PLUS is suitable for

gravity drainage systems in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.2 as certified
under Watermark WM70060 in buildings. Local national standards, code
of practice and regulations must be observed during the design and
installation of RAUPIANO PLUS system.
The pipes, fittings and seals can be operated continuously at 90C
(and up to 95C for brief periods). They are suitable for the drainage of
chemically aggressive waste water with a pH value of 2 (acidic) to 12
(basic).
Behaviour in fire corresponds to B2 normal combustibility according to
DIN 4102 and D-S3,d0 according to EN 13501-1.
The pipe connections are leak-proof up to an internal excess water
pressure of 1 bar (10 m water column).
Pipes and fittings may not be used for:
- installation subjected to continuous operating temperature higher than
90C (or higher than 95C for brief periods)
- carrying waste water containing prohibited chemicals (see section 10)
- exposed installation to UV radiation directly and indirectly
Observe all applicable national and international regulations on

installation, accident prevention and safety, together with the information
contained in this manual.
Areas of application which are not included in this technical information
(special applications) require consultation with our technical department.

Fig. 2-2
RAUPIANO PLUS pipe structure.
- RAUPIANO PLUS robust for transport, storage and handling at the

construction site.
- Fracture resistant at 10C.
- Can be stored outdoors for up to 1 year.
- Optimum hydraulic characteristics. Accumulation of deposits and
incrustations are reliably prevented.
Pipe structure
The RAUPIANO PLUS multi-layer pipe construction achieves superior

properties through the application of distinct functional layers combined
in a composite construction.
Three separate layers impart unique characteristics to the pipe. The
abrasion resistant, low friction inner layer ensures the easy transit of
waste. The mineral filled mid-layer ensures superb sound dampening
properties and also offers increased stiffness. Finally, the robust outer
layer is tough enough to withstand impacts and shocks.
These ideal characteristics are achieved thanks to the three-layer

structure of the pipe and the specialised adaptation of each individual
layer to its respective requirement:
- High ring stiffness
- Excellent impact strength of the outer layer at low temperature
- Increased UV-resistance
- Abrasion-resistant and smooth inner layer
- Highly rigid and sound-insulating middle layer made of mineralreinforced PP
Combined together, the composite layers create a tough, durable pipe,

with outstanding acoustic properties that gives all the functionality of a
drainage pipe system combined with the noise absorption properties of
lagging.
2.4
Fittings
The pipe system can experience local vibrations at redirections due to

critical drainage conditions. This can have a negative effect on soundrelated properties.
To minimise this effect and counteract negative influences, targeted mass
optimisation was carried out in sound-critical areas of elbows with a
nominal width of DN 90 to DN 160. This stabilises the sound behaviour,
reduces sound generation and thus achieves even better noise damping
in the impact area.

2.5
Sound insulation
The sound-insulating drainage system RAUPIANO PLUS offers quality,

quietness and living comfort in important areas of a building. REHAU
RAUPIANO PLUS system has been independently tested by a member
of the Association of Australian Acoustical Consultants (AAAC) at the
National Acoustic Laboratories (NAL). Test results were assessed by a
separate AAAC member to ensure impartiality of the report. The report

Basics
- Pipes up to 500 mm and fittings are packed in a box

- Pipes 750 mm and longer are packed in wooden crates
In every area of building construction, especially the construction of

multi-storey apartment blocks, hospitals and rehabilitation homes, sound
insulation plays an increasingly important role. One of the most significant
sources of sound within buildings is the sanitation set-up and the
accompanying drainage water pipe system.
A differentiation is made between air-borne noise and structure-borne

noise, depending on the propagation medium.
Air-borne noise
Max 4
Transportation
RAUPIANO PLUS proves its robustness during transport and at the
construction site thanks to its three-layer structure and impact-resistant
and shock-proof outer layer. Ensure that pipes make firm contact over
their entire length.
Storage
- Protect boxes from wetness during transport and storage.
- RAUPIANO PLUS and its seals can be stored outdoors for up to 1 year
due to its UV-stable characteristics.
We recommend:
- Protecting RAUPIANO PLUS pipes and fittings from direct sunlight and
soiling by:
- storing in the box
- covering them with tarpaulins (ensure proper ventilation).
- Stack no more than four wood crates on top of one another.
- Ensure that the wood frames are aligned squarely when stacking.
- Store pipes in such a way that no objects are placed on top of the
sleeves and insertion ends and that these are not deformed.

Recommended storage of RAUPIANO PLUS.
Marking
Pipes and fittings are marked with the following:

- Manufacturers mark
- Approval number
- Mark of quality
- Ice crystal (AS/NZS 7671 and DIN EN 1411)
- Nominal diameter (DN)
- Year of manufacture
- Production plant
- Material
- Angle specification (with elbows and branches)
Typical sources of sound include:

- Fitting noises
- Filling noises
- Draining noises
- Inlet noises
- Impact noises
Air-borne noise is present if the noises of a sound source are transferred

directly through the air to human ears.
Structure-borne noise
With structure-borne noise, the sound transfer first occurs through a solid
body. This body vibrates and passes the vibrations on to human ears as
airborne noise.
Unsuitable drainage pipe system and type of brackets are considerable

contributors to disturbing noise. RAUPIANO PLUS, a system-tested,
versatile sound-insulating drainage water system, puts things right.

Sound insulation requirements
Comparative testing results showed that using the RAUPIANO PLUS

system achieves the same Rw + Ctr value as a PVC system lagged with
Pyrotek Soundlag 4525 acoustic lagging.
3.2.1 Australia
Sound insulation requirements differ from country to country and from
one building type to another. In Australia the NCC / BCA Volume One Part
F5 outlines the requirements for sound insulation:
- F5.6 Sound insulation rating of services
The superior sound insulation properties of the RAUPIANO PLUS system

mean it can be installed where an Rw + Ctr value of 40 is required without
lagging.
Noise produced
inside pipe
(water/waste noise)
Weighted sound reduction index (Rw) is the number used to rate the
effectiveness of a system as a noise insulator. An increase in one Rw unit
approximately equals a reduction of one decibel in noise level.
Weighted sound reduction index plus spectrum adaptation term (Rw+Ctr)
takes into account the lower frequency noise. Ctr is a negative number, so
Rw+Ctr value will always be lower than Rw value.

Sound reduction with RAUPIANO PLUS

1
Both structure-borne and air-borne noises occur in drainage pipe systems.

The wall of the pipe vibrates due to currents and flow noises. The type
and intensity of these pipe vibrations depend on a variety of factors, such
as the mass of the pipe, the pipe material and its inner damping.
4
Fig. 3-5
When developing a sound-insulating drainage water system, both types of

noise distribution must be taken into account.
Acknowledging the different installation practices and the effects on

acoustic level reading in the building, REHAU assessed the acoustic
performance of RAUPIANO PLUS system in National Acoustic Laboratory
(NAL).
The acoustic test was done to ensure full compliance of RAUPIANO PLUS
with the acoustic requirements of Building Code of Australia. The tests
were done with full-toilet-flush and half-toilet-flush.

Airborne noise insulation with RAUPIANO PLUS

Airborne noise is reduced by RAUPIANO PLUS thanks to special materials,
sound-dampening fillers and increased weight of the pipe system.
Targeted mass optimisation in sound-sensitive areas of fitting elbows
of nominal diameter DN 90 to DN 160 provides further improvement at
redirection points.

Structure-borne noise insulation with RAUPIANO PLUS

The transmission of structure-borne noise to the wall is reduced with
RAUPIANO PLUS with the use of patented, sound dampening brackets:
- A supporting clamp with loose gap in the pipe is fastened to the wall
- A fastening clamp rests onto the supporting clamp, keeping the pipe in
position
This extensive physical decoupling of the pipe, bracket and wall means
that the transmission of structure-borne noise is eliminated to a high
degree (see Chapter 7).

installation OF RAUPIANO PLUS
6.1
Shortening and tapering pipes
Fittings may not be shortened.
1. If necessary, shorten the pipes with common pipe cutters or a finetoothed saw.
2. Make a cut at 90 angle from the pipe axis.
3. De-burr the inner diameter of the pipe.
4. For connections to push-fit socket pipe systems, taper the pipe ends
with a tapering tool or a coarse file at an angle of approximately 15.
CAUTION
Danger of damage to property!
At low temperatures, the mineral-reinforced pipe material RAU-PP
becomes brittle and thus more sensitive to impacts, like every other
material.
The optimised material consistency of RAUPIANO PLUS is characterised

by excellent impact strength at cold temperature.
RAUPIANO PLUS is marked with the ice crystal in accordance with
AS/NZS 7671 and DIN EN 1411 to indicate this.
24
6.2
6.3
Joining fittings and pipes
Cut lengths and remaining lengths (pipes with smooth ends) can be
handled with double sockets and sleeve couplers up to a maximum pipe
length of 3 m.
Ensure that sufficient expansion joints are present in the pipe sleeves
here as well.
1. Clean dirt from sealing ring, sleeve interior and pipe end.
2. Coat spigot end with REHAU lubricant and slide into the sleeve until it
stops.
3. Mark inserted spigot end in this position at the sleeve edge with a
pencil, pen etc.
4. With longer pipes (> 500 mm), pull the spigot end out an additional
10 mm from the sleeve to create an expansion joint for heat-related
expansion.
5. With short pipes ( 500 mm) and fittings, insert the spigot ends fully
into the sleeves.
Fig. 6-1
6.4
Installation of additional fittings
The installation of additional fittings in an existing pipeline is possible with

sleeve couplers:
1. Cut out a sufficiently long section of pipe from the pipeline:
fitting length + 2 x pipe outer diameter
2. De-burr pipe ends.
3. Slide sleeve coupler all the way onto one end of the pipe.
4. Slide fitting onto the other end of the pipe.
5. Fit adapter into the remaining space of the pipe and de-burr.
6. Slide second sleeve coupler all the way onto the adapter.
7. Insert adapter and close both gaps by sliding the sleeve couplers.
Use REHAU lubricant liberally here.
Pulling out pipe ends for expansion joints.
By pulling out the spigot ends from the sleeves, the changes in length of
the pipe caused by temperature fluctuations are absorbed in the push-fit
sockets.
Each RAUPIANO PLUS pipe sleeve can accept the changes in length
of a waste pipe up to 3 m in length (coefficient of linear expansion in
accordance with DIN 53752 averages 0.09 mm/(mK) at 0C to 70C).

For transition from RAUPIANO PLUS pipes to Cast Iron pipes or other
materials for drainage systems, rubber sleeve adaptors can be used.
These rubber sleeves come with rubber seal that is attached to the pipe
ends and two stainless-steel worm-gear clamps. These rubber sleeve
adaptors can be used in new construction or renovation works.
It is not necessary to adapt from RAUPIANO PLUS DN 110 to PVC system

DN 100 as they have exactly the same outer diameter of 110 mm. It is
possible to insert DN 100 PVC pipe into DN 110 RAUPIANO PLUS socket
after applying REHAU lubricant.

RAUPIANO PLUS I.O. access pipe.
When installing this P-trap, it is important to install the pipe support

properly to ensure safe operation of the drainage system.
Installing access pipes enables mechanical cleaning of the waste pipe

system.
RAUPIANO PLUS access pipe is supplied with insert to ensure flushing
surface for smooth and uninterrupted water flow.
Fig. 6-11 RAUPIANO PLUS securing clip.
Place the insert into the access opening and tighten the screw cap with
rubber seal inserted.
Do not use sharp cleaning devices for mechanical cleaning.
Fig. 6-12 RAUPIANO PLUS P-trap siphon
The socket plug can be used to plug-off the pipe ends if they are not
in use. The socket plug is to be used together with the securing clip to
ensure a safe and tight jointing.
If the pipes will be plastered directly without using a plaster board (e.g.
brick rabitz, expanded metal baffle) or cladding:
- Cover pipes and fittings on all sides with flexible materials such as
mineral or glass wool or commercial insulation tubes beforehand.
- If using plaster boards, close the slot beforehand with mineral wool, for
example. This prevents sound bridges from forming between the pipe
and masonry when applying the plaster.
- Protect pipes and fittings from the effects of high temperatures
with appropriate measures for heating insulation at points at which
temperatures over 90C are reached due to external influences.
The P-trap siphon can be supported by attaching a hook into the built-in
hole.
6.11 Installing pipes in installation shafts

The RAUPIANO PLUS waste pipes and fittings can be installed in
installation shafts without additional structure-borne noise insulation.
Heating and condensation-water insulations are only required in special
cases (e.g. inlying roof drainage).
Construct wall and ceiling penetrations with common moisture-protected
structure-borne noise insulations to acoustically decouple the pipelines.
28
29
6.13 Installing pipes in concrete
When installing in concrete, we recommend decoupling the pipelines from

the main structure by using common moisture-protected structure-borne
noise insulations with a thickness greater than 4 mm. A limitation of the
sound-insulation effectiveness can be expected, however.
- Attach pipe components in such a way that a change in position during
concrete application is prevented.
- Ensure sufficient expansion joints when installing the pipe.
- Seal off sleeve gap with adhesive strips to prevent the penetration of
concrete.
- Seal off pipe openings before concrete application.
CAUTION
Danger of damage to property!
Damage to the pipelines!
- Avoid placing the weight of the concrete on the pipelines by making
provisions for dissipating the load, e.g. by using:
- Spacers in the case of reinforcing steels
- Carrying boxes
- Brackets
- Avoid walking on the pipes during concrete application.
6.14 Installation above suspended ceilings
6.16 Installation as stormwater piping
Installation above suspended ceiling might require additional acoustic

measures to ensure a high degree of sound insulation. The additional
acoustic measures depend on a few factors:
- The room type directly underneath the piping (wet areas, bedroom or
other habitable rooms)
- The construction type of the building
- The type of plasterboard used as suspended ceiling
- The expected water flow rate within the particular drainage line
- The desired acoustic level to be achieved
There is a risk of dew formation on the pipes installed as stormwater

piping within the building.
In general, it is unnecessary to take extra measures to sound-insulate

RAUPIANO Plus system when it is installed above wet areas and other
habitable rooms, with water flow rate taken into consideration. But if a
very high degree of acoustic requirement is specified for that particular
room, it is necessary to wrap RAUPIANO Plus system with sound
insulation that passes above that room.
6.15 Ceiling penetrations

Ceiling penetrations must be constructed to be moisture-proof and
sound-insulating. Fire-protection measurements may be necessary if
pipes penetrate through fire-rated building elements. Refer to chapter 4
for details.
If mastic asphalt is to be applied to the floor:
Protect exposed pipeline components with ceiling liner, protective sleeves
or by winding them with heat-insulating materials.
Condensation water appears when the temperature of the pipe walls

drops below the dew point temperature of the ambient air due to cold rain
water, for example. Humidity from the ambient air then condenses on the
pipe surface.
For this reason, all pipelines in the building on which condensation water
could form are to be provided with diffusion-proof insulation material.
Insulation of the collecting pipes in the cellar can be dispensed with if
there is no risk of dew formation. In general, this is the case with exposed
stormwater piping in unheated cellars if temperature equalisation occurs.
Condensation-water insulation materials
Closed-cell materials with high water vapour diffusion resistance are
recommended for use as condensation-water insulation. If open-cell or
fibrous insulation materials are used, they must have an impermeable
outer layer that is firmly attached to the insulation material.
- Close off all impact, groove, cut and end points of the insulation with a
permanent seal.
- Cut out insulation in the bracket area.
- Pull insulation material over the bracketed section and permanently
seal it to the neighbouring insulation material with adhesive.
Fixing of stormwater piping
To prevent the pipelines from sliding apart, a security clamp is to be
attached to the pipe directly below the supporting clamp.

fixing OF RAUPIANO PLUS
To achieve optimum sound insulation, use only RAUPIANO PLUS sound

dampening brackets during assembly.
3. Open supporting clamp, insert pipe with fastening clamp and close
supporting clamp.
Fixing plan for vertical stack
A plan for effective bracketing of a sound-insulating vertical stack with

RAUPIANO PLUS is displayed graphically (see Fig. 7-4).
RAUPIANO PLUS drainage pipes must be installed tension-free.
7.1
7.2
Support bracket for vertical stack

Every site is different; the installation practice described below might not
be applicable all the time.
The patented sound-dampening support bracket consists of a supporting

clamp and a fastening clamp. In general, one sound-dampening support
bracket per storey is sufficient.
Following above storeys (from bottom to top)

1. Install another RAUPIANO PLUS pipe after the branch of the lower
storey to penetrate the slab, use fire collar if necessary.
2. Install a branch after the vertical pipe.
3. Attach sound-dampening bracket directly below the socket of the
vertical pipe.
4. Install a guiding bracket below the sound-dampening bracket with a
distance of approximately 2/3 of the vertical pipe.
Transition to the collecting pipe (commonly at basement level)

1. Fit fastening clamp around the pipe and close it.
2. Assemble supporting clamp on masonry.
Fig. 7-2
Closing supporting clamp.
After installation, the fastening clamp fully lies on the supporting clamp.
This achieves optimum sound decoupling.
1. Create a flow redirection from vertical stack into the collecting pipe
by installing two 45 bends together with a short pipe in between
(RAUPIANO PLUS pipe 250 mm).
2. To minimize the distance from the ceiling to collecting pipe, embed
the socket of the first 45 bend (upper) in the ceiling area.
3. Use a fire collar if necessary.
Storey above the collecting pipe (from bottom to top)
Fig. 7-1
Supporting clamp assembled, opened.
A spacer is attached at the closure of the support clamp to prevent the

clamp being closed completely. This ensures minimum transmission of
structure-borne noise to the wall.
Fig. 7-3
Fully installed support bracket.
If there are short pipes ( 500 mm) installed within the vertical stack pipe,
no additional bracketing is necessary.
Additional securing bracket

To prevent the vertical stack pipes from sliding apart, additional security
bracket should be installed directly below the sound-dampening bracket:
- For single dwellings, only on the first storey.
- For multi-storey apartment buildings, on every third storey.
1. Install RAUPIANO PLUS pipe just above the first 45 bend.

2. Install a branch after the vertical pipe.
3. Attach sound-dampening bracket directly below the socket of the
vertical pipe.
4. Install a guiding bracket below the sound-dampening bracket with a
distance of approximately 2/3 of the vertical pipe.
- Although it is a good practice to install the sound-dampening bracket

directly below the pipe socket, it is not necessary to do so.
- The guiding bracket permits free longitudinal movement of RAUPIANO
PLUS pipe.

Pipe and fitting
Rubber sealing ring
The specifications are used for the initial orientation of the chemical
resistance of the material (not of the possible influence of the corrosive
agent) and cannot simply be applied to all usage scenarios. Mechanical
behaviour can be impaired in cases where tension and the presence of
chemicals occur simultaneously (tension-fracture corrosion).
The types of rubber used generally exhibit quite good chemical

resistance, but components of esters, ketones and aromatic and
chlorinated hydrocarbons in sewer water expand heavily, which can lead
to damage of the connection.
If in doubt, we recommend testing the suitability of the pipe, fitting and
seal material in existing systems or have them checked in a laboratory.
