The ductwork carrying the conditioned air to the occupied spaces in the building acts as the old fashioned “speaking tubes” to also conduct the fan noise to the occupied spaces. This can result in annoying or intolerable noise levels in offices, conference rooms, auditoriums, etc. The solution is to place one or more silencers between the fan and the occupied spaces. See bulletin B-119 for the DAAS system for determining if a silencer is needed and if so, the model and size. Since tap-offs to different offices from a common duct also transmit noise and conversations from one room to another, silencers are also used in the branch ducts to insure office privacy. Duct silencers are available in a wide assortment of geometries, models, and lengths. This is to accommodate duct shape, pressure loss vs air flow and noise reduction. The table below lists the Steutfow' duct silencer models and their general characteristics. Each of the tabulated silencer models is available in four standard lengths: 3 ft., 5 ft., 7 ft. and 10 ft. Longer lengths of rectangular silencers of a given model increase the noise reduction and slightly increase the pressure drop. Rectangular silencers of a given model and length retain their noise reduction regardless of their cross-section. AEROACOUSTIC Corporation emphasizes the proper and secure seal between duct to silencer and silencer to duct with an approved non-toxic high pressure duct sealant. When subjected to laboratory test block conditions, connections that were not “air-tight” have resulted in a loss of attenuation in an overall acoustical performance of 5 to 7 decibels due to the “flanking transmis- sion” phenomenon.

No flimsy 26 or 24 gauge material that vibrates in the airstream. * All acoustical fills Owens Corning 702/703 unfaced, resin-bonded, waterproof and erosion resistant fiberglass. No dust laden and water absorbing mineral wool or felt is used. The combustion ratings of the fiberglass is as follows: * Flame Spread Classification * Smoke Development Rating 5 oO * All internals are electric resistance welded under quality controlled factory conditions for an outstandingly long life. No screws or clips are used which could come loose in shipment or vibrate loose in the airstream. * Every air path is aerodynamically designed and built with a static pressure regain diffuser, not the standard straight air path construction. Also, in the larger modules, a structural air path support is factory installed to prevent lateral compression. * Our acoustically designed perforated sheet pattern (overall percent of free area - bar size - number of holes per sq. in.) is formulated from maximum sound transparency index (Tl) calculations and extensive laboratory test results for specific frequency attenuation. AVAILABLE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES * Mylar protective wrapping over the acoustical fill for use in oil or dust laden environment. The protective film prevents wicking and contamination of the acoustical fill. * All stainless steel construction, Type 304 or Type 316, for the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industry. With the addition of Mylar Protective Film, these silencers can be used in clean room applications. These silencers are completely serviceable for high pressure water jet cleaning and drip dry with no loss of acoustical attenuation. * Removable internal batt construction for abnormally dirty applications, i.e. auto body shops, wood shops, metal grinder exhausts, etc. Batts can be vacuumed, submerged for cleaning or replaced with new batts depending upon application * Flanged connections, flexible connections, slip connections, hanger cradles can be factory provided for ease of field installation. * Inlet and/or discharge transitions or fittings are available from the factory for proper fit * Bird screens and rainhoods, both vertical and horizontal, for outside applications. * Factory installed filter assemblies before or after the silencer. ae 1-800-VIA-AERO wxn2a78) La,psnte fies y sel Sileutflon RECTANGULAR DUCT SILENCERS ULTRA LOW FRICTION — AEROFOIL DESIGN & agiletin ~ 707 PERFORMANCE CERTIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASTM—E477 TEST STANDARD THE KD (KNOCKED DOWN) CONCEPT When very large silencers are required, such as for fresh air intakes, fan plenum discharges and in ducts larger than the maximum modular size, the AEROACOUSTIC Corp. can supply the silencer internals for installation in ductwork or openings by others. The KD silencer kit consists of the proper number and length of sound ab- sorbing batts plus the spacers and assembly in- structions. They are the same batts and spacers from which the factory-assembled complete silencers are fabricated. Field tests have shown that assembling a large silencer from a KD kit requires fewer manhours than banding together the modules to form the larger unit. Both initial and shipping costs are lower for the KD kit. Silencers field assembled in accordance with the assembly instructions and with the supplied sound absorbing batts and spacers are guaranteed by AEROACOUSTIC Corp. to have the same certified performance tabulated for complete silencers. KD internals can be supplied for silencers hav- ing heights of up to 12 feet and any width, per the accompanying sketch. Z ennDUCT SILENCER AERODYNAMICS & AEROMECHANICS —- FLOW eo BREE ARE ar Bene The tabulated pressure drop, dynamic insertion loss and self-generated noise are based upon tests conducted at an independent testing laboratory. The test reverberation room is qualified in accordance with ANSI $1.31 and ANSI $1.32 for sound measurements from 100 to 10,000 hertz The laboratory method used in conducting the test is in accordance with ASTM Standard E477-90 “Standard Method of Testing Duct Liner Materials and Prefabricated Silencers for Acoustical and Airflow Performance” The published dynamic insertion loss ratings are tabulated for both positive and negative silencer face velocities. Positive (blue) velocities apply when the air and the noise are moving in the same direction, e.g. a silencer on the discharge side of the fan. Negative (red) velocities. apply when the air and the noise are moving in the opposite direction, e.g., a silencer on the intake side of the fan. The published pressure drop ( AP) vs flow data for Scleagflec* and other AEROACOUSTIC duct silencers is based on the ideal installation, i.e. in a straight run of ductwork with at least 5 equivalent duct diameters upstream of the silencer entrance and 10 equivalent diameters downstream of the silencer exit. While we recommend mounting duct silencers in this fashion, this is seldom achieved in practice The purpose of the following pages is to explain what happens if the above ideal installation is not used. A sketch of an ideal installation and the contribution of various parts of the air path to the pressure drop are shown in Figure 1. This figure shows the contribution to the overall static pressure drop of the various portions of the flow path, as follows: a) AP1 is the drop in static pressure required to accelerate atmospheric air into the duct. b) AP2is the drop in static pressure required to accelerate the air from the duct velocity to the velocity in the silencer flow path. ©) 4P7 is the friction pressure drop within the silencer flow path. ) AP8 is the pressure rise due to flow deceleration in the diffusing exit of the silencer flow path. €) AP9 is the momentum regained from the exit velocity from the silencer diffusing exit - a straight run of at least 10 equivalent duct diameters downstream of the silencer is required in order to achieve this regain 1-800-VIA-AERO aus)‘ ® ws?

Melee ‘Corp. ®TERMINOLOGY ABSORPTION COEFFICIENT: The percentage of a sound energy incident on the surface of a material that is absorbed by the material. ACOUSTICS: The science of sound including its production, transmission and effects or the qualities that determine the value of a room or other enclosed space with respect to distinct hearing. AMBIENT NOISE: The all encompassing noise associated with a given environment, being usually a composite of sounds from many sources near and far. ATTENUATION: The decrease in sound power as sound waves travel through a silencer. A-WEIGHTING: A method by which the sound pressure level spectrum can be related to the human perception of noise intensity. The result is a single number evaluation of loudness. , DECIBEL (dB): A unit for expressing the ratio of two amounts of acoustic signal power equal to ten times the common logarithm of this ratio. DIVERGENCE: The rate of decrease of sound pressure with distance from a source. DYNAMIC INSERTION LOSS (DIL): The difference between two sound pressure levels measured at the same point in space before and after a silencer is inserted in the system and operating under the rated flow conditions. END REFLECTION: Occurs when sound is transmitted across an abrupt change in area, such as when a duct discharges into a room, some of the sound energy is reflected back into the duct. FLANKING TRANSMISSION: Noise that reaches an observer by paths around or over an acoustical barrier. FREE FIELD: Area beyond the near field, with no obstructions, where the sound pressure levels decay six decibels for each doubling of the distance from the near field. FREQUENCY: The number of times that a periodic function repeats that same sequence of values during a unit variation of the independent variable - frequency is measured in cycles per second or hertz. LOUDNESS: The magnitude of the auditory sensation a person experiences. MYLAR: A polyester film one mil thick (0.001") that can operate at a maximum temperature of 250° F. NEAR FIELD: A hemispherical space where sound pressure waves from one radiating surface tend to interfere with waves generated by other surfaces. The near field boundary, the distance from the radiating surface, is related to the wavelength of the lowest frequency and overall size of source. NOISE: unwanted sound. OCTAVE BAND (OB): A range of frequencies where the highest frequency of the band is double the lowest frequency of the band. The band is usually specified by the center frequency. OCTAVE BAND CENTER FREQUENCY (OBCF): The square root of the product of the lower and upper limit of the frequency band. SELF-GENERATED NOISE: Noise generated by the turbulence of air passing through the silencer. SOUND: Mechanical radiant energy that is transmitted by longitudinal pressure waves in a material medium (air) and is the objective cause of hearing. SOUND INTENSITY: The average rate of sound energy transmitted through a unit area normal to the wave direction at the point considered. SOUND POWER LEVEL (PWL): A measure of the total sound energy radiated by a source, in decibels, and is ten times the logarithm to the base ten of the ratio of the sound power radiated by the source to a reference power. The reference power is one picowatt. SOUND PRESSURE; A fluctuating pressure superimposed on the static pressure by the presence of sound. In air, the static pressure is barometric pressure. SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL (SPL): A measure of the air pressure change caused by a sound wave, in decibels, and is twenty times the logarithm to the base ten of the ratio of the pressure of this sound to the reference pressure. The reference pressure is 0.0002 microbars. SPEED OF SOUND (C): The rate at which a disturbance travels through a medium (at 68°F, the speed of sound through air is 1,127 Ft./Sec.). STATIC PRESSURE (SP): The potential pressure exerted in all directions by a fluid (air) at rest. For a fluid in motion, the pressure is measured in a direction normal to the direction of the flow. TRANSMISSION LOSS (TL): The number of decibels by which sound incident on an object is reduced in transmission through it. VELOCITY PRESSURE (VP): The kinetic pressure in the direction of flow necessary to cause a fluid (air) at rest to flow at a given velocity. WAVELENGTH: The distance that a sound wave travels in one period. 18Modular Construction The parallel aeromechanic placement of single silencers Sales & Engineering Di, Fiorida Office FAX 908-730-5660 Tol. 904-731-3577 1-800.VIA-AERO Tel: 908-241-8600 eanaare)
