Sound Barrier Walls

Outdoor community noise problems may require an engineered Sound Barrier Wall. Our walls offer sound reduction by absorbing the sound at its source and blocking the noise from transmitting to noise sensitive areas. Substations, HVAC Chillers, Power Generators, Cooling Towers, and Compressors are a few outdoor noise candidates for our Noise Barrier Walls.

GRANULATOR OPERATION MADE MORE BAREABLE

ArtUSA Curtain Enclosure

Curtain enclosure constructed of IBBC-13-2" reduced noise levels by 22dB(A).  

Inset Custom feed-flap protects operator during loading.

ArtUSA Curtain Enclosure Diagram

 

 

  Like other manufacturers, this plastics producer has a certain amount of waste inherit in the making of a product.   But fortunately, they are able to recycle waste.  Waste is loaded into a granulator which grinds the plastic into tiny pellets.  Eventually these pellets are reused in a finished product.

The problem was that no employee wanted to go near the granulator.  It was the loudest machine on the shop floor peaking at 110 dB(A).

Finally, the noisy granulator became too much for management to deal with.  Complaints from shop employees became more frequent, waste piled up meaning that potential raw materials were being squandered and the threat of an insurance claim or an OSHA violation grew every day.

Something had to be done.

Company management figured that the best way to overcome the problem was with some type of acoustical enclosure.

Applications engineers offered an enclosure design featuring their BBC-13-2"  composite material, a combination sound absorber and noise barrier product.  The composite is made up of a 1 lb/sq.ft. reinforced loaded vinyl noise barrier and 2" thick quilted fiberglass sound absorber.   Typically, a 1" thick absorber is put on the interior of a reinforced barrier.   But because of the extreme conditions in this case, engineers utilized the 2" thick material.

A critical design feature was a feed flap that gave the operator a substantial amount of protection when loading the granulator.  Prior to the installation, the operator was subjected to 110 dB of noise at close range.  Continuous loading of the granulator without hearing protection would have been disastrous.  With the new enclosure featuring the feed flap, an operator no longer needs hearing protection. 

Issues of operation and maintenance were overcame by the double curtain track and hardware design which allows access at nearly any point in the enclosure.

Another key design feature is the ventilation system.   Too often, the installation of a roof panel means sacrificing ventilation for enhanced acoustical performance.  Our acoustical curtain enclosure can incorporate intake and exhaust ventilation baffles without compromising acoustical performance.
