PE-Flexichamber
Infiltration into and exfiltration from the sewer network is a common challenge. Pipelines are often rehabilitated using trenchless methods, but manhole rehabilitation is sometimes overlooked. We should adopt a holistic approach: manholes should always be rehabilitated as part of a tight and completely sealed sewer system.
PE- Flexichamber is a way to rehabilitate manholes by installing a plastic chamber inside the existing manhole. PE-Flexichamber consists of specially designed factory-made PE components, which can be easily welded and modified at the worksite. This trenchless manhole rehabilitation is carried out by two men in a live flow situation (without bypass). The trenchless sliplining is made with Flexipipes and the chamber is subsequently connected to the ends of the pipes.
Advantages of the PE-Flexichamber:
- Flexisliplining & PE-Flexichamber together forms a completely sealed and tight system
- a cost-effective solution
- HDPE material improves the flow properties
- Trenchless system
- Can be installed without bypass pumping
- Corrosion free and H2S resistant
By combining trenchless sliplining with the PE-Flexichamber, the entire sewer system’s tightness and long-term reliability are secured
