Acoustic Enclosures, Packages and Barriers

Controlling noise pollution in the Power Generation sector is a priority for many organizations. It is essential that all Power Generation applications have the required noise control measures in place that ensures the facility meets with the relevant noise criterion.

The IAC Group is the market leader in noise control engineering and is one of the premier manufacturers for acoustic enclosures, packages and barriers. Equipment offered by IAC cater for all market needs whether highly specific or specialized customer requirements.

The following markets use acoustic enclosures, packages and barrier installations from IAC.

  • Energy production facilities including gas turbines, steam turbines, industrial boilers / HRSGs, diesel generators, combined heat and power (CHP) installations
  • Petrochemical and chemical facilities including refineries, ethylene production, gasification etc.
  • Pipelines and gas compression stations
  • Manufacturing and process industry e.g. automobile, paper mill, printing etc.

IAC’s approach to these markets centers on providing an acoustic response that satisfies your functional requirements and delivers value for money.

Acoustic Enclosures

IAC acoustic enclosures reduce noise pollution from a variety of sources that include main turbines, auxiliary power units, diesel generator sets, mobile (trailer-mounted) power generation sets, co-generation plant, gas compression sets, mechanical pump drivers, transformers and boilers.

Acoustic enclosures from IAC offer the following benefits and key features:

  • Noise reduction from 15dB(A) to 50dB(A)+
  • Vibration isolation, noise controlled shock resistant systems
  • Air inlet drive for combustions (filtered air optional)
  • Exhaust gas removal for combustion engines
  • Indoor/outdoor applications
  • Integration of lighting, ventilation, fire fighting systems, air-conditioning etc
  • Full Installation service
  • Modular solutions
  • Easy access for operators and maintenance personnel

Find out how IAC acoustic enclosures were installed at Didcot Power Station to protect local residents against low frequency noise emissions from generator transformers.

Acoustic Packages

Acoustic packages provide employees with protection from the risk of hearing damage and protect machinery. Despite often being located in noisy areas, acoustic packages offer a quiet, comfortable workspace for staff.

The main features and benefits associated with IAC acoustic packages are:

  • Ventilation system – including full noise control
  • Protection for moving parts
  • Maintenance and ease-of-access for operators
  • Interfaces with other machinery/equipment
  • Instrumentation and fire suppression/detection systems
  • Noise reduction from 10dB(A) to 40dB(A)+
  • Specific requirements e.g. automation, electrical and mechanical equipment for use in explosive atmospheres

Acoustic Barriers

Acoustic screens and walls combat low frequency noise disturbance along sensitive boundaries at power plant sites. In addition, acoustic barriers are ideal for noise control applications at ground level, road, rail, bridges and rooftops.

Our noise barriers protect communities from unwanted noise. IAC acoustic barrier systems optimize sound transmission loss and sound transmission properties. They are durable; aesthetically pleasing and can carry a range of finishes that blend in with local surroundings.

The main features and benefits associated with IAC acoustic barriers are:

Used independently or in conjunction with acoustic enclosures to attain environmental noise criterion

  • Fully demountable
  • Available in a vast color range
  • Full acoustic design service and guarantees
  • Incorporate high sound transmission loss ratings
