Simple Tricks to Make Your Air Compressor Whisper Quiet
Learn how to dampen the noise of an air compressor without compromising its power. Follow this guide to make working with compressed air peaceful and enjoyable!
Background
Capable of being used in a wide range of industries, Air Compressors are one of the most common machinery found in various workplaces. However, they cause excessive noise and high consumption which is one characteristic of the compressor. By improving the quality of an Air Compressor product, the noise generated from it can be greatly reduced which will greatly improve our quality of life as well as reduce environmental pollution.”
Solution
There are a number of simple tricks you can use to make your air compressor whisper quiet. Attach a silencer to the intake and exhaust ports of your air compressor to dampen the sound coming out. By installing a silencer at the outlet, a large part of the noise will be eliminated. Attach an extra silencer just outside the building if there is not enough space inside for both intake and exhaust silencers. Another way is to install grids near the doors or windows in order to prevent unwanted noise from leaking out. An important part of this technique is to ensure that it does not pose any danger from rain and snowfalls. The sound produced by an air compressor can be reduced by up to 3-10 decibels (dB) if the plant is installed next to a wall or partition instead of being in open space. Introduce damping sleeves on metal surfaces where vibrations occur: use anti-vibration mounts on machines such as metalwork presses, concrete mixers, planers, jointers and other tools that produce metal particles such as sparks or filings. And finally, use sound insulation panels around fans.
