Allegro 9403-01 Manhole Umbrella Shade 27 to 32 Inch

Product Description

The ALLEGRO 9403-01 is a manhole umbrella shade designed to provide overhead coverage at open manhole work sites. Standing 84 inches tall with a 68-inch diameter canopy, it creates a shaded work zone above the manhole opening, reducing sun exposure for workers operating below grade or at the surface. The shade fits manhole openings ranging from 27 to 32 inches and is suited for utility, municipal, and industrial confined-space entry operations. At 14 pounds, it is portable enough for field deployment by maintenance crews and confined-space entry teams.

This shade is used in outdoor utility and infrastructure maintenance applications where workers need temporary overhead protection at manhole access points. Typical install scenarios include sewer inspection, underground utility work, and municipal maintenance operations. It is positioned at the manhole rim and sized to accommodate the range of standard manhole opening diameters between 27 and 32 inches, making it a practical field accessory for crews working extended shifts at open access points.

Installation Notes

Deployment is typically performed by utility maintenance workers or confined-space entry teams prior to beginning below-grade work. Position the shade base securely at the manhole rim before workers descend or begin surface-level operations. Follow applicable OSHA confined-space entry procedures and site safety plans when working at open manholes. Ensure the shade is stable and will not shift into the opening during use.
