In the last ten years, Wastewater Access Chambers (WAC) and Clean-out/Sampling Chambers (CSC) have replaced more than 60% of traditional manholes installed in Europe. The leader in the industry, PipeLife, has developed and employed a thorough complement of options with its WAC/CSC products that include the technological advances in both function and materials. The polymer solutions provide a long lasting, cost-effective alternative to concrete.
The WAC/CSC system is designed to provide access into sewer or strom drain systems for inspection, cleaning and sampling. WAC/CSC is a non-man entry chamber system and all maintenance ectivity is conducted from the ground level. Common uses include:
- TV inspection access
- Line clean-out access
- Cul-de-sac access
- Interim access locations in long pipe sections
- Effluent sampling stations
- Monitoring access
Never revamp, rehabilitate, or restore manhole systems again. Introducing the PRO 40, the most advanced solution in underground inspection chambers today. From improving urban environments to providing reliable alternatives, Underground Technologies is transforming the world under your feet!
Rugged, modular structural plastic manholes perform better than traditional manholes, especially in harsh environments. The PRO 40 manhole base accepts multiple inlets and outlets, from 6” through 15” sizes, and at any angle. Manufactured of non-corrosive inert materials, the PRO 40 is ideal for installations in chemically aggressive environments, and it is H-20 rated for heavy traffic. Its advantages include:
- No degradation from sulfides – No rehabilitation requirements
- Airtight integrity throughout system
- Cost effective
- Small Carbon Footprint
- H-20 rated for heavy traffic
- Exceeds performance standards of concrete and lined-concrete manholes
- Gasket sealed
- Reduces Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory
- No infiltration
- No ex-filtration
- Inert, non-toxic construction
- Manufactured from recyclable materials
- Life expectancy – comparable to SDR 35 and C-900
- Outstanding Life Cycle Assessment
- No coatings necessary
- Meets ASTM D 3212, D 1784, F 477
- Easy installation – fewer steps; less opportunity for human error
- Years of established performanceSmooth, easy-flow surfaces
