Isolation and Sound Emission
The most effective form of isolation is
to locate the unit away from any sound
sensitive area. Structurally transmitted
sound can be reduced by elastomeric
vibration eliminators. Spring isolators
are not recommended. Consult an
acoustical engineer in critical sound
applications.
State and local codes on sound
emissions should always be
considered. Since the environment in
which a sound source is located affects
sound pressure, unit placement must
be carefully evaluated. Sound power
levels for Trane air-cooled Series R®
chillers are available on request.

For maximum isolation effect, isolate
water lines and electrical conduit. Wall
sleeves and rubber isolated piping
hangers can be used to reduce the
sound transmitted through water piping.
To reduce the sound transmitted
through electrical conduit, use exible
electrical conduit.
