Industrial, commercial, and environmental noise control is an important and often overlooked part of the design process. Whether it is to comply with municipal ordinances, conform to OSHA standards or to achieve occupant comfort, it takes knowledge and experience to design an acoustical system that achieves the required sound levels.
Kinetics Noise Control Inc. Products
Rooftop Equipment
Chillers, Condensers and Cooling Towers and other mechanical equipment generate unwanted outdoor noise negatively affecting surrounding residential and business communities. NOISEBLOCK™ barrier wall systems reduce the noise to acceptable levels.
Residential Noise Compliance
Many neighborhoods have strict noise ordinances for hearing protection and comfort levels. NOISEBLOCK™ barrier panels are used to control outdoor noise at shopping malls, schools, recreational facilities, parks and other outdoor applications.
Utilities
Electrical sub-stations, transformers and generators cause unwanted outdoor noise and can be unpleasant to view. NOISEBLOCK™ barrier wall systems reduce the unwanted noise to acceptable levels and block the view for increased security.
Oil and Gas Compressors Stations
NOISEBLOCK™ barrier wall systems are a cost effective solution to limit oil and gas midstream compressor noise.
Transportation / Drive-Thru Lanes / Loading Docks
Noise from loading docks, traveling motorists on major highways/interstates, airport areas, and railways are effectively reduced using Kinetics reflective or absorptive barrier wall systems.
Panel Construction
NOISEBLOCK™ panels are fabricated with outer solid shell of 16/18 gage and inner perforated shell of 22 gage. Panels are stiffened with 18 gage internal channels and edge rails. The acoustic grade fill is 2.5 to 6 pcf long strand fiberglass or mineral wool and are inert, mildew resistant, vermin proof and incombustible and is suitable for wet/dry and freeze/thaw cycling.
Standard Panel Dimensions
NOISEBLOCK™ panels are available in standard designated widths of 21.625″ and 45.625″ and lengths up to 144″. Other widths and lengths are available by request.
Structural Performance
NOISEBLOCK™ wall systems are designed per industry standards following the applicable IBC building codes, referenced standards and guidelines. These referenced codes, standards, and guidelines include wind, snow, and seismic loading conditions.
Finish
NOISEBLOCK™ wall systems are available in mill or factory powder-coat finish per selection of Kinetics standard colors; color matching is available.
