Square shaped grating in ductile iron EN-GJS-500-7 conforming to the norm EN
1563:2018, with load bearing capacity over 250 KN (25 tons) conforming with the
load classes C250 as set out by norm EN 124:2015
TECHNICAL SHEET
It is made as a single cast, which facilitates its installation and reduces the
unit load on the supporting wall. It is particularly tall, which means it can be
used in any type of pavement. It presents thin bars on the front, which allow
the reception of water and avoid the introduction of any rubbish (stones,
leaves and cans) and the intrusion of rats. The back side is concave in
shape, with a slope towards the inside, which facilitates the channelling
and the efficient flowing of water. The upper side, which can be walked
on, presents anti-skip grips and a hole, which guarantees the flowing of
water, even in case of obstruction on the street side, thereby avoiding any
eventual flooding.
The new pavement inlet solves all the problems of highway drainage thanks
to drains gratings: for example, when the vertical grating is blocked due to
the presence of rubbish, leaves or other, when the asphalt embankment
tends to reduce the rise of the pavement, or in case of accidental
alterations of the road section. This model, totally new, facilitates any action
of workmen to free the inlet from surface obstructions. It is conceived for
installation with the rectangular manhole cover CHC5070 for pavement
inspection.
