Safe, Innovative and Functional Access Solutions for the Water Industry
Custom solutions, tailored to fit your needs and budget
The FSP Premium Four Sided Austral Safety Cover is the ultimate in void protection; with its unique folding gate system the operator is never needlessly exposed to the open void.
Austral have been able to provide custom size covers to suit our specific needs, and the covers have increased our safety for staff when working at or around heights. The covers are in use at our major sewer pump station sites and enable operators and engineers to safely access and work around the wet well, and have been a major improvement from our previous covers.
We are very happy with the Austral pit lid; it has reduced manual handling issues completely and also fall from height issues.
Over the last two years, we have installed 10 [Austral] lids. We have deliberately installed these lids where pump stations are within close proximity to high pedestrian traffic areas…where our staff have reported a potential safety hazard and where odour and aesthetics could be an issue.
