It’s important for the protection of operators from actual or possible dangers to their health and safety due to noise or vibration at work. Noise is any sound that can lead to the impairment of hearing, or that directly or indirectly endangers the health and safety of personnel.
If breathing air compressors are partly set up directly in the breathing protection workshop, or the fire station is situated in or near a residential area, the resulting noise emissions must be reduced or kept below a certain threshold in order to remain in line with the regulations contained within the Health and Safety at Work Act, noise control laws (emission laws), and to avoid noise nuisance etc.
Our vertical compressor models 280, 450, and 570 provide highly efficient noise dampening, due to the design of their housings. This is achieved by turning 8 x 90º the required cooling air flow in the housing, to achieve a comprehensive cooling of every compressor component, as well as allowing a highly efficient noise dampening. In this way, the noise caused by the compressor’s propulsion and compressor units remains “trapped” within its housing.
