Technical Data: S Models
The performance data listed in
Tab le 11 includes sound ratings. The
ratings provide a guide in
determining the acceptable degree
of loudness in particular occupancy
situations.
Certain general rules apply to
specific selection of unit heaters with
regard to degree of quietness (or
loudness);
• The greater the fan diameter, the
higher the sound level.
• The higher the motor RPM, the
higher the sound level. Note that
on most units the lower the
speed mode results in lowering
the sound rating one increment.
• Selecting a larger number of
smaller units generally results in
lower overall noise levels than
fewer large units.
All horizontal steam and hot water
unit heater motors, whether fan
guard or shelf-mounted, are isolated
from the mechanical mount by
resilient isolators. This mounting
along with balanced fan blades and
excellent overall construction
integrity, assures you the utmost in
quiet operation.
The following table outlines SOUND
RATING for various applications. The
lower the number, the quieter the
unit and the lower the sound
requirement.
*Depending on specific use in these facilities,
size of operation, etc.
*Compared to water.
