Polypipe Building Products has launched a range of 600mm diameter inspection chambers designed to meet the specific needs of groundwork contractors.
Manufactured from polypropylene, Polypipe’s IC600 range of inspection chambers is a safe, cost-effective solution for the maintenance and inspection of sewers and drains.
Polypipe Building Products designed the range for adoptable and non-adoptable domestic and commercial drainage systems as the ideal alternative to traditional concrete ring manholes.
The range of chambers is certified to EN 13598-2 and is fully sealed for a watertight, tamper-proof, low-maintenance installation. Described as lightweight and strong, they are said to be easy-to-handle, resistant to corrosion and have a double skinned base for additional groundwater resistance.
The choice of six bases allows for straight through flow or cross tee configuration for use with 150/160mm, 225/250mm or 300/315mm pipe. The adaptor range suits multiple pipe configuration options for connection to Polysewer, Smoothwall PVCu and Vitrified Clay pipe.
The riser cap can be adapted for reduced access for chamber depths of more than 1.2m using the UG14 restricted access reducer – with Polypipe ductile iron covers and frames.
