Figure 2. dB(A) Comparison Chart
Comparison Chart dB(A)
Figure 2 below provides a comparison of dB(A) levels for
daily noises and the typical range of generator sets. Open
generator sets are unhoused units where the path of noise
is unobstructed. An acoustic housing encloses the genset
to impede and absorb the path of noise.
For applications that require even quieter operation, see the
WhisperWatt™ product line for dB(A) levels as low as 62. If
quieter levels are required, please contact an MQ Power
dealer.
