Soundproofing work of a high-capacity compressor

Details

Published: 10 June 2026

ITS will participate in soundproofing works for of a large-capacity compressor, of which installation is planned to supply ultra-high-purity gases: Nitrogen (N₂), Oxygen (O₂), Argon (Ar), Hydrogen (H₂), Helium (He), and Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) are required in very large quantities for the high-tech processes involved - as part of the construction of a semiconductor manufacturing plant in Western Europe -. The aim is to limit noise emissions to ensure acceptable working conditions for personnel...

Soundproofing of booster / expanders

Details

Published: 04 May 2026

ITS will participate in the soundproofing of boosters / expanders, major componets of Air Separation Units. Although such hardware is not very large (the surface area of its footprint is around 10 m2, its height typically being around 4 m), its noise emissions are nevertheless far from negligible when taking inventory of the noise sources of such an installation, since the sound power level is around (for each one) 125 dB(A), which is considerable; this is all the more true when 6 such pieces...

Supply and installation of large-dimension soundproof gates

Details

Published: 19 April 2026

ITS will participate in the supply and installation of large soundproof gates at a high-tech industrial site in Western Europe. This involves equipping the openings used for maintenance operations in a large building housing six very high-capacity compressors, in order to limit the sound pressure level outside the building and comply with regulatory requirements:

• European Directive 2003/10/EC concerning the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks...
