The JV100 Standard Manhole Box from Altrad Generation is a four-sided excavation protection system designed for the safe installation of pre-cast manholes, chambers, and tanks. The four-sided configuration encloses the working area on all sides, giving operatives complete protection from ground movement during the installation process.
The system works to a maximum depth of 5500mm and is available in five sizes to match a wide range of manhole configurations. Installed using the Dig and Push method, the box can be extended with additional extension boxes for greater depth. Closing panels, edge protection, and a ladder access system are available as optional additions for enhanced site safety.
The JV100 Standard Manhole Box is compatible with Altrad Generation Trench Boxes for combined applications and is available for hire and purchase from branches across the UK and Ireland.
