ABSORPTION SILENCERS
WITH 200 and 100 mm BAFFLES
OVERVIEW
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
OVERVIEW:
The rectangular shaped SA series of silencers are basic elements
for air-conditioning plants, as they allow the noise generated in
air ducting to be reduced. They can be used for air or smoke
intake or expulsion systems, ventilation for soundproofed
cabins, cooling circuits for generator sets, and in air-
conditioning and ventilation systems.
ABSORPTION SILENCERS:
These are used for all applications in which mean and high
sound frequencies are between 500 Hz and 8000 Hz.
ABSORPTION SILENCERS AND RESONANCE:
These are used in all special applications where mean and low
sound frequencies are between 120 Hz and 1000 Hz.
CHARACTERISTICS:
Silencer - outer frame: Made of galvanised steel sheet.
Silencer - fixing: By tightening bolts or nuts to connect the
silencer's flange to that on the ducting.
Baffles - holding frame: In galvanised steel sheet.
Absorption and resonance baffles - holding sheet: The
height of the baffle (H) is broken down into two equal sections SIRF model as per SI but with baffles enclosed by micro-

sheet. The upper part may be covered by a micro-expanded
sheet.
Baffles - material used: Jacket made of high density mineral
fibre, covered externally by a protective glass film.
Baffles - reaction to fire: Not inflammable - class 0.
