The challenge
Noise from water pipes has values of up to 90dBA and it is desirable to dampen this as much as possible with the help of the insulation of pipes and valves.
The solution
The pipes were insulated with 50mm mineral wool bowls and sheathed with a steel jacket. Valves and flanges were insulated with insulation jackets 50 mm thick.
Products
Thermal insulation jackets is a flexible and inspection-friendly solution for valves. These are measured on-site and produced in our own premises.
Duration
This job was executed with 2 men in 2 days
Noise measurements
Measurements taken from 3 different points in the room and the measurements uninsulated are:
- Pkt.1 = 79dBA
- Pkt. 2 = 83.9dBA
- Pkt. 3 = 90dBA
Noise measurements carried out after insulation has been installed are:
- Pkt.1 = 72dBA
- Pkt. 2 = 75dBA
- Pkt. 3 = 76dBA
