Silentflex® brand is an expert in the isolation of vibration, noise and shock, with a long tradition in the protection of Data Centers against seismic action.

A solution of seismic plinth Silentflex® for rows of racks, raised floor and indoor climate type CRAC units is presented here.

Our brand is the result of a profound engineering work specializing in mechanics with close collaboration of the experts referenced seismic isolation technology and computer systems vibrations.

SEISMIC RETENTION SYSTEM

Rows of racks, raised floors and indoor cooling units installed in the Data Centers, must be protected against seismic waves, incorporating horizontal containment systems to prevent shaken effect of type P waves.

These waves are characterized by a high frequency and acceleration, so the horizontal stops based on vibration Silentflex® steel cushion provides excellent resistance to such waves.

Silentflex® seismic retention system has a foolproof way to stop the raised floor shake preventing the further reinforcement effort cushions shock applied over the adjoining walls.

SEISMIC VERTICAL SYSTEM: SPRING WITH RETENTION

The vertical vibration holding serve to

prevent shaken effect of type S waves whose

frequency is not high, but its amplitude can

be very harmful if you do not have a set of

double spring with retention latching

Silentflex®.

The Silentflex® heavy duty springs

combined with shock cylindric cushions

allow a very low resonance frequency:

3-4 Hz, which provides excellent vibration

protection ahead of the vertical seismic

waves.

Also provide support loads up to 1500 kg

per supported rack.

Enormous overloads supported preventing collapse of the structure.

Mechanisms prevent the backflow bounce up the structure, which keep the equipment fully stable in case of earthquake.

Are made using metallic vibration cushions in order to completely prevent any vibration bridge collapse.

SEISMIC PERFORMANCE OF METALLIC CUSHIONS

The main characteristics of the metallic

cushions Silentflex® are:

• The static stiffness ensures constant

natural frequency for a wide range of

loads within a small volume

• Support for high overload and shock

retention

• Manufactured 100% stainless steel,

both in AISI-302 and AISI-304 or

AISI-316 for highly corrosive environments

in chemical industries, feed, aeronautics, etc.

• Adaptability to customer needs and ease

of assembly

• We can manufacture shock absorbers

metallic cushions specially designed for

our clients in form and performance.

• They keep their elastic characteristics at extreme

temperatures between -70 °C and +300 ºC and in certain

applications ranges between -150 °C to +400 °C

• Natural resistance to the presence of aggressive

substances in their environment: grease, oil, water, etc.

• Natural frequency between 12 and 25 Hz (ideal for

seismic isolation frequencies)
