Characteristics of manways for installation in concrete bases

Manways for installation in concrete (cement) tanks are a specific group of manways with very wide range of applications. They are usually equipped with a special frame to allow proper installation of the manway in the tank.

 

Installing a manway in a concrete tank is usually carried out in one of two ways:

  • by external installation of the manway with bolts,
  • by embedding part of the the manway (frame) in the concrete base.

Stainless steel manways for concrete and cement tanks

A concrete manway is usually equipped with a special design element to allow for proper installation:

  • frame – a profiled frame edge with a special groove around the perimeter of the manway, allowing it to be embedded in the tank wall,
  • symmetrical, equally spaced protrusions around the perimeter of the manway frame (approximately 1 cm wide) to allow for concrete pouring,
  • wide frame with holes for anchoring with bolts.

Shapes and dimensions of manways for concrete/cement tanks

The most common shapes of manways for installation in concrete/cement tanks are round and rectangular versions.

 

Rectangular manways for concrete/cement tanks are usually large-size designs. Common dimensions among these types of manways: 500x800 mm, 600x800 mm, 530x406 mm or 800x1000 mm. They are equipped with a minimum of 2 handwheels for lid locking.

 

Round manways for installation in a concrete base are also designs with larger diameters. By default, the minimum available option for round concrete manways is DN490. Other popular dimensions are: DN600, DN800, DN1000, DN1200 and DN1400.

 

Some basic concrete manway designs can be customised to meet the specific requirements of a project. In this case, please contact us individually to arrange technical details.

Manways for installation in concrete – applications

Manways mounted in the concrete base are an important element that allows access to the interior and maintenance of tanks in multiple industries. They are, therefore, used:

  • in the food industry (both as a manway for tanks for finished products and for production waste),
  • in biotechnology (inspection manways for reactors with low operating pressures),
  • in agriculture (manways for underground tanks for various purposes).

It is important to note that concrete manways are not construction manways. Their default purpose is for installation in freestanding, non-pressurized tanks used primarily in the food industry and related areas. The use of manways in construction, hydro-engineering and similar industries, must follow the opinion of the design engineer and involve the approval and responsibility of the investor.
