Vacuum Test Plug
Cherne Air-Loc® Manhole Testers provide the most efficient, accurate and cost-effective method of testing new,
existing and rehabilitated manholes, per ASTM C 1244.
Vacuum testing identifies infiltration and exfiltration
problems by creating a vacuum in a manhole and then monitoring a gauge for vacuum loss. Less expensive and
faster than water testing, the Air-Loc® manhole tester's remote-inflation and monitoring system keeps users
away from the "danger zone."
Bladder-Style Air-Loc® Head Assembly Features:
- Seals the inside diameter of the manhole at frame or cone
- Supported by a durable aluminum brace
- Push-pin rod design for easy depth adjustment
- Includes 20' hose with gauge
Vacuum Test Plate
Plate-Style Air-Loc® Head Assembly Features:
- Designed to seal manhole cone surface
- Seals a wide range of manhole diameters
- Neoprene gasket for leak-free seal
- Includes 20' hose with gauge

Vacuum Generators
Converts standard air compressor into a vacuum source for testing manholes-draws a vacuum in minutes.
Air-Loc® Vacuum Generator Features:
- Vacuum Generator 460 delivers 14 CFM at 10" Hg;
Air compressor: minimum 7 CFM at 100 PSI
- Vacuum Generator 600 delivers 42 CFM at 10" Hg, meeting or exceeding the competition; Air compressor: minimum 85 CFM at 100 PSI
- Vacuum generators may also be used as a rapid deflator for large diameter plugs significantly reducing the time of deflation
Air-Loc® Vacuum Pump
Air-Loc® Vacuum Pump Features:
- Honda or Briggs & Stratton engine; each is equipped with a low-oil shut-off mechanism to prevent engine failure
- Heavy-duty frame with optional wheel kit
- Unbreakable aluminum filter jars
- Oil-free graphite vane pump for no-fuss lubrication
- Draws 10" Hg vacuum in about two minutes for a 15' deep manhole;
(18 CFM at 10" Hg)
Ventilator-Smoke Tester
Air-Loc® Fan Assembly Features:
