Noise hoods for production lines
Covering of the production line with the noise barrier is an individual solution of protection of operators against excessive noise. Form, design, value of noise suppression and installation of the hood in the factory building are dealt with on the basis of the specific needs of the customer.
Characteristic of the hood:
| dimensions (length x width x height): |
according to the requirements of the customer |
| noise attenuation: | from 9 to 25 dB |
| wall thickness: | min. 50mm |
type of construction: installing into the line space, partially demountable enclosure – acoustic panels attached to the supporting frame
mounted supporting structure with removable acoustic panels
construction of acoustic panels: sandwich version, external covering with steel, aluminium or stainless steel sheets of the thickness 1,5 mm, or 2 mm for robust panels
panels of the mass over 40 kg are provided with loops for being handled by a crane
| surface finishing: | according to the requirements of the customer |
| possible accessories: | ventilation units |
| acoustic labyrinth for ventilation air inlet | |
| electrical wiring | |
| cable bushings | |
| anti-noise door, gate | |
| anti-noise windows | |
| air-conditioning |

Noise is every unwanted sound that is disturbing or troublesome or that affects adversely human health. Negative effects of noise on human health are partly specific ones, presented by disorders of the function of acoustic analyzer, partly non-specific ones (extra hearing), when functions of various systems of the organism are affected. These non-specific system effects appear almost in the whole range of noise intensities, frequently they are accompanied by stress reaction and impact on neurohumoral a neurovegetative regulation, biochemical reactions, sleep, higher nervous functions, such as learning and memory, impact on sensory motoric functions and coordination.
