Fire posts for manhole guards

Under Manhole guards is an access or processing opening in containers of any kind and in confined spaces where people are rarely present. For example, in shipbuilding, plant construction and apparatus engineering as well as in mining. This places special demands on personnel and materials. Fire item For the manhole guards, it's like life insurance for the workers on site, but not just that, but more.

Cross-sections with a clear width of 400 to 600 mm are common, so a person of normal build can pass through without major problems. The size of the manhole is only taken into account if large tools or parts have to be brought through the manhole, as it is then made larger. It is also sealed pressure- and liquid-tight with a manhole cover or manhole door using screws or a quick-release fastener. Swivelling devices are often used to open/move manhole covers.

Furthermore, elliptical lids are also common, which are inserted through the opening and held in place by the internal pressure.

If the interior of the manhole cannot be entered / reached, smaller inspection openings are used. These openings are called „head hole“ or „hand hole“. This enables a visual inspection and cleaning of the interior.
A strict process and workflow must be adhered to in order to protect personnel and materials. Starting with the work authorisation through to completion of the work.
Our employees have the appropriate occupational health check-ups, are trained as first aiders and are specially qualified for manhole tasks.
