Mounted SpringsFree Standing Isolators (FDS)

Restrain Isolators (FLS)

Industrial Vibration Isolation

FDS are free-standing, unhoused, large diameter, laterallystable steel springs contained in an upper load plate/levelling assembly and lower load plate/noise padassembly, for control of high frequency vibration.

They are also available as an all-welded unit for bolt-downapplications.

FDS spring isolators are designed for spring deflectionranges from 18 mm to 100 mm with load capacity up to10,500 kgs.

FDS spring isolators are recommended for isolation offloor-mounted refrigeration compressors, pumps,packaged air handlers, airconditioning equipment,centrifugal and axial fans, and internal combustionengines.

For equipment that is subject to weight change or highwind loads, we have Restrained Spring Isolators.

FDS1SpringIsolator

FDS2SpringIsolator

Model FLS vibration isolators consist of free-standing,large diameter, laterally stable steel springs assembledinto welded steel housing assemblies. It is fabricated tolimit vertical movement of the isolated equipment, if theequipment loads are reduced, or if the equipment issubjected to large external forces.

The housings also provide a constant free and operatingheight to facilitate installation. Spring elements arecomplete with internal noise isolation pads and have anadjusting and leveling bolt as a part of the top load plateassembly. Holes are provided in all isolators for bolting tothe structure and to the supported equipment. The isolatorcan be welded to the structure as well. To assure stability,the springs have lateral spring stiffness greater than 1.2times the rated vertical stiffness, and are designed toprovide a minimum of 50 per cent overload capacity.

Kinetics Model FLS vertically restrained spring isolationmounts are recommended as a noise and vibrationisolator for mechanical equipment located near criticallyquiet areas, where the equipment to be isolated hassignificant changes of weight during maintenanceoperations, and for equipment subjected to external forcesor high wind loads.

• Assembled with welded steel housing

• Limited vertical moment with reducing loads

Mounted Glassfibre PadsGlassfibre Isolators (KIP)

Glassfibre Vibration Isolator (AC)

Any equipment either rotor or stator will have its own CS(critical speed) or natural frequency which, when excited,results in structureborne vibration and airborne noise inthe building. By designing the rotor, we can minimize orensure the equipment operates below or higher to itscritical speed. But that is an ideal situation. A quick solutionfor currently operating equipment is to avoid such noise/vibration issues with a product called ‘pad isolators’.

Anutone’s Noizkon division has extensive expertise andexperience in designing and manufacturing innovativeproducts to control noise/vibration in technicalcollaboration with Kinetics USA, and pad isolators is oneof them, distinct from neoprene or spring isolators. Padisolators are precompressed, moulded glassfibre-basedcubes that can be incorporated into innovative floorisolation systems.

Available in a range of load rating and vibration isolationefficiency, pad isolations from Anutone-Kinetics areextensively researched, tested and proven at project sites.

Project SolutionsAsk for project solutions withAnutone-Kinetics KIPproducts. Offering thebroadest range of isolators ofany company in the industry,we design and engineerproduct solutions for:• HVAC equipment and piping• Industrial machinery• Decoupling of generated noise (source) to

Suspended IsolatorsSpring and Glassfibre Isolation Hanger (SFH)

Spring and Neoprene Isolation Hanger (SRH)

Kinetics Model SFH hangers are recommended for usenear critically quiet areas for isolating any suspendedsource of both audible and inaudible noise and vibration.Suspended mechanical equipment such as in-line fans,cabinet fans, and piping and ductwork in close proximityto mechanical equipment are typical uses of Model SFHhangers.

High sound transmission loss ceiling systems can beeffectively isolated by the use of Model SFH hangers inthe ceiling suspension system. This hanger model isparticularly suitable for use in isolated ceiling systemsused to shield spaces from mechanical equipmentrooms, flyover aircraft, and similar sound isolationinvolving predominantly low frequency noise.

• Suitable for AHU ducts and piping

Model SRH hangers are used to isolate suspendedsources of both noise and vibration. Suspendedmechanical equipment such as in-line fans, cabinet fans,and piping and ductwork in close proximity to mechanicalequipment are typical uses of Model SRH hangers.

In noise sensitive areas, the pipe hangers selectedshould have the same deflection as that specified for theequipment isolation and all piping in the building shouldbe isolated.

High sound transmission loss ceiling systems can beisolated by the use of Model SRH hangers in the ceilingsuspension system.
