Housed Spring Mountings consist of high deflection, Colour coded Steel springs assembled into telescoping cast housings separated by Neoprene Rubbers Inserts complete with built-in levelling bolt & thick Neoprene acoustical friction pad to eliminate bolting down. Rubber inserts isolate sound waves generated in springs, limit movement during start-up & shut-down & provide minimum damping in all directions to allow springs to function independently. Ideally suited for high horizontal thrust applications & low-frequency vibration problems.
Mountings Are Available In Three Versions With & Without Dampers:
- External Levelling (Suffix: E) For Well Centered Equipment Mounting Holes With Access For Levelling From Above (Standard)
- Internal Levelling (Suffix: I) Are Used When External Setting Is Not Possible. Mounting Is Aligned With Equipment Mounting Hole & Levelled By An Internal Bolt.
- Free Standing (Suffix: F) Has A Non-Skid Friction Rubber Pad Cold Bonded To Top Surface & An Internal Levelling Bolt.
- Damped Mountings (Suffix : D) All Versions Also Available With Built-In Adjustable Dampers. Damping Is Varied By Altering The Pressure On The Rubber Insert By Adjusting The Dampening Bolt. Tightening The Dampers Reduces Vertical Movement, Limits Bounce, Controls Side Motion & Rock. Wear Is Negligible As Damping Is Provided By The Viscous Distortion Of The Neoprene Inserts Rather Than By Friction.
