EJ product specified on the busiest cargo port in Africa

The challenge

The challenge facing the Tanger Med II Port Authority was to durably and cost effectively defend the cathodic protection system from water ingress on a sea wall that spans 3000 m with the appropriate manhole covers.

The solution

Three hundred and twenty LSPEB C by EJ access covers were chosen as the most effective product.

This watertight access solution combined with an additional corrosion protection coating results in a zero maintenance requirement.

This EJ solution was selected to enable ease of access to the electrical network whilst withstanding the worst of the elements and high wheel loadings which the site is subjected to.

The product - LSPEB C Manhole Cover

• Load test for D400 according to EN124 - NF certified
