Inertia Bases

Vibration & Noise Control

Download Icon
Inertia bases are designed to reduce noise and vibration transmission between plant equipment and the building structure. They are usually supported on helical steel spring mounts and are used to:- Provide stability to a system. Lower the centre of mass. Reduce coupled mode problems. Minimise the effect of external forces. Ensure an even load distribution. Add rigidity to the plant / equipment. Reduce the effect of centre of mass estimates. Provide suitable anti-vibration mount fixings. Reduce vibratory movement due to plant start-up and run-down as the resonant frequency is passed.
