π Acrefine Vibration & Noise Control Solutions
Explore Acrefine products designed to reduce vibration and structure-borne noise from HVAC equipment, industrial machinery and suspended building services. The range includes anti-vibration pads, elastomeric mounts, spring isolators and isolation hangers for both floor-mounted and suspended applications.
No single isolator suits every installation. The correct solution depends on factors such as the equipment type, load at each support point, operating speed, disturbing frequency, required deflection and method of installation.
Why Choose Acrefine Isolation Products?
- Multiple isolation methods: Choose from pads, rubber mounts, high-deflection springs and suspended isolation hangers.
- HVAC and industrial applications: Suitable options are available for pumps, fans, compressors, chillers, air handling units, cooling towers, pipework and ductwork.
- Load-matched selection: Product variants cover different load capacities, dimensions, rubber hardnesses and spring deflections.
- Technical support: Fixing Smith can assist with product selection using your equipment and installation data.
π Choose the Right Type of Vibration Isolator
1. Anti-Vibration Pads
Choose pads when: Equipment requires a simple resilient layer beneath its base, without a dedicated bolted mounting connection.
Available options include ribbed rubber pads, mats, modular blocks, composite pads and purpose-designed washing machine supports. Pads can help reduce vibration transfer, provide grip and protect the supporting surface when correctly loaded.
2. Anti-Vibration Mounts
Choose mounts when: Equipment must be attached directly to an elastomeric isolator or the project requires a floating floor isolation system.
The collection includes floor-mounted rubber isolators, steel-housed heavy-duty mounts, floating floor rubber supports and perimeter isolation strips.
3. Spring Vibration Isolators
Choose springs when: Greater deflection is required to isolate lower-frequency vibration from floor-mounted mechanical equipment.
Free-standing, base-mounted, housed and heavy-duty spring isolators are available for equipment such as chillers, cooling towers, compressors, fans and air handling units. Restrained models are also available where lateral movement must be controlled.
4. Vibration Isolation Hangers
Choose hangers when: Pipework, ductwork, fan coil units or other equipment is suspended from the building structure.
Rubber, spring and combination hangers introduce a resilient element into the suspension path, helping reduce the transfer of vibration and structure-borne noise through threaded rods and supports.
π Correct Selection Matters
Isolation performance depends on correct product selection and loading. Calculate the load at each support point and consider the equipment operating speed, required deflection, centre of gravity, support arrangement and any movement-restraint requirements. The supporting structure, anchors and associated fixings must also be designed for the imposed loads.
