Sound Enclosures for Industrial Blowers

Sound Enclosures for Industrial Blowers

Client Type:

Industrial Manufacturing Facility

The Challenge

A customer required the installation of two 50 horsepower industrial ventilation blowers inside a warehouse. Since the projected noise levels exceeded 85 dBA, the threshold at which hearing protection is typically required, the customer sought a solution that would reduce noise while maintaining safe and efficient operations.

Solution Options

Kogi Environmental Solutions identified two potential approaches:

1. Constructing a dedicated room to house both blowers and isolate noise. While effective, this option involved a higher cost and a significantly larger footprint inside the warehouse.
2. Designing compact sound enclosures for each blower. This option was more cost-effective, required less space, and offered easier integration into the warehouse environment.

Key considerations included:

• Maintaining a compact design due to limited warehouse space.

• Allowing for adequate heat dissipation from the operating blowers.

• Reducing noise levels to ensure workers could operate safely without hearing protection
