450mm Clampband Style Manhole Covers

VOH451 SERIES

Liquip is excited to release the VOH451 Series manhole cover, which is the first and only double drop tested hatch to meet the newly released Australian Standard AS2809:2020.

The VOH451 manhole cover offers a large easy access 452mm diameter Manhole Cover entry which meets AS2809:2020 & AS2865 confined space entry.

Liquip’s VOH451 Series manhole covers come standardised in cast aluminium with metric threads. The VOH451 manhole cover is also equipped with four provisions for conveniently mounting additional equipment such as overfill probes, vapour vents, dip & fill tubes and Diptronic® tank gauging.

Australian drop test approval makes the VOH451 manhole cover ideal for both top and bottom loading. Liquip’s VOH Series manhole covers have long been the industry choice for manhole covers due to Liquip’s no compromise approach to safety.
