Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WSK  Wall panel set

Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WSK is a high-quality carrier profile for the attachment of Schlüter-LIPROTEC-ES LED strips.

In combination with KERDI-BOARD installation panels, recessed indirect or direct lighting for on-wall structures can be realised.

Differing lighting effects can be created by using two different diffuser lenses.

LIPROTEC-WSK also has a concealed cable duct for simplified installation of the supply cables.

The LIPROTEC-WSI diffuser lens is designed to fit the short leg of Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WS /-WSQ. This enables indirect lighting to be emitted back over adjacent materials.

When using the LIPROTEC-WSD diffuser lens, direct lighting is possible in addition to indirect lighting. Depending on the application, in the corner area or integrated into the covering, it is possible to determine the degree of direct lighting.

The diffuser lenses and LEDs used with all profiles of the LIPROTEC series can be replaced even in installed condition.

Matching end caps are available as accessories.

Note: Please observe the corresponding Schlüter-LIPROTEC installation instructions for installing lighting technology and for planning and positioning cables - especially for the Schlüter-LIPROTEC set versions.

1. Drill and deburr the cable conduit through the profile.
2. Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WSK is adhered with the installation adhesive Schlüter-KERDI-FIX or an equivalent material. A line of adhesive is applied to the external surfaces of the profile to be bonded, which is then positioned. Remove any substances that may inhibit bonding, such as grease etc. prior to applying the installation adhesive.
3. Remove any excess adhesive using a suitable cleaning product.
4. To achieve adhesive bonding between the smooth aluminium surface and the tile, the self-adhesive fleece Schlüter-DESIGNBASE-HVL is fitted.

Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WSK is available in the following materials:

Profile:

• AE = anodised aluminium

Diffuser lenses:

• PMMA = Polymethyl methacrylate

Material properties and areas of application

In applications exposed to chemical or mechanical stresses, the profile’s suitability must be verified.

The information provided below is intended as a general guideline.

Schlüter-LIPROTEC-WSK (anodised aluminium): The aluminium features an anodised finish that retains a uniform appearance during normal use.

Damaged anodised surfaces can be restored with paint.

Surface areas must be protected against abrasion or scratching. Aluminium is sensitive to alkaline media. Cementitious materials, in conjunction with moisture, become alkaline, which may result in corrosion depending on the concentration and length of exposure (aluminium hydroxide formation). For this reason, remove adhesive or grouting material immediately from all visible areas and do not cover freshly installed coverings with foil.

Schlüter-LIPROTEC diffuser lenses are made of a slightly structured, translucent thermoplastic PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate).

Alcohol (e.g. rubbing alcohol) as well as detergents with a surfactant content over 5% can cause damage to the diffuser lens.

Note: The profiles with their diffuser lens covers must be positioned so that no water can collect inside.
