Why noise reduction

Noise at work regulations 2005

Loud noise at work can damage your hearing. The Noise Regulations 2005 requires employers to prevent or reduce risks to health and safety from exposure to noise at work. Employees have duties under the Regulations too.

The Regulations require employers to:

  • assess the risks to employees from noise at work;
  • take action to reduce the noise exposure that produces those risks;
  • provide employees with hearing protection if you cannot reduce the noise exposure enough by using other methods;
  • make sure the legal limits on noise exposure are not exceeded;
  • provide employees with information, instruction and training;
  • carry out health surveillance where there is a risk to health.

What are the action levels and limit values?
The Noise Regulations require employers to take specific action at certain action values. These relate to:

  • the levels of exposure to noise of employees averaged over a working day or week; and
  • the maximum noise (peak sound pressure) to which employees are exposed in a working day.

Installations

Most of our noise enclosures can be installed without the need to shut the system down as each panel is installed separately.

Fire retardant foam will burn until the ignition source is removed, whereas our foam which is fire resistant will not burn.

Our high density fire "0" rated foam is manufactured by impregnating standard foam with liquid carbon which is then dried leaving a fire resistant sound absorption material able to withstand various ignition sources.

Automatic thermal fans adjust speed to the ambient temperature. Designed to keep power consumption and noise levels at a minimum and deliver high performance cooling when required.

Yes, the MS-QuietBox building extraction kit is an ideal way of removing heat and fumes generated by the vacuum pump into your building extraction system.

The accessory connects directly onto the MS-QuietBox and includes the 120mm diameter flexible pipe.
