Noise-Absorbent Steel Suits Explosive Environments

Noise-Absorbent Steel Suits Explosive Environments Sonphonon noise-absorbent steel is now available as a fully conductive laminate or damper, which makes it ideal for use in acoustic canopies, lids and enclosures, particularly on gensets and transformers. However static could build up on any isolated layer of steel and cause an explosion, SDS Sonphonon can help prevent this. SDS has developed a new polymer which enables conduction between the layers, reducing the risk of sparks or electric shock. Sonphonon conductive noise absorbing laminates are available as sheets or cut to size.Standard sheet sizes are 2 x 1, 2.5 x 1.25 and 3 x 1.5m, although these widths can be decoiled to any length.The material can be supplied as standard or specialised grades for forming and deep drawing in CR, aluminium, galvanised or stainless. Sound Dead Steel can also supply adhesive dampers to bond to resonant panels.This can be an extremely efficient fix for noisy canopies and guards.
