EFTM rubber mountings are designed to provide superior attenuation of medium to high frequency vibration and noise emanating from a wide range of motor driven machines particularly axial and centrifugal fans. High resilence rubber with low dynamic to static stiffness ratio ensures maximum efficiency, good creep performance and long service life.

1. If bolting is preferred: Mountings are furnished with a tapped hole in the center. This enables the equipment to be bolted securely to the mounting.
2. Mobile mounting: A restraining bolt is required for mobile and marine applications to control inertia forces. Mobile mounting have the same
3. load deflection characteristics as the stationary mounting.
4. No bolting required: Mountings may be used without bolting under machines having no lateral or severe vertical motion.
5. If bolt hole is inaccessible: Use set screw threaded up from under. “H" must exceed maximum mounting deflection.

Features :

EFSH Spring Hangers consist of freestanding. laterally stable steel springs in series with a molded elastomeric element assembled into a stamped and welded hanger bracket. The hanger brackets and the springs are powder coated. Spring vibration isolation hangers are designed to provide high efficiency isolation from structure-borne vibration and noise. Springs are color-coded according to load ratings and are designed for 50% overload.

Applications :

EFSH Hangers are used to isolate suspended sources of both noise and vibration. Suspended mechanical equipment such as air handling units, FCU’s cabinet fans, piping and ductwork in close proximity to rotating mechanical equipment are typical applications of model EFSH hangers.

Introduction

The Easy Mount assembly consists of base and cover into which are apair of rubber to metal bonded flexible units sandwiched in an angular disposition. These are loaded in a combination of shear and compression for longest life and best load /deflection characteristics. Besides the desired vertical flexibility, easymounts are stiffer in the transverse direction as compared to flexibility in the horizontal direction. Full advantage of this characteristic is taken by disposing the mountings so that the greater flexibility is available in the direction in which it is needed. When three or more mountings are arranged symmetrically around a vertical axis, the flexibility of the suspension is the same in all direction. Such an arrangement is very useful for centrifuges, washing machines and other machinery revolving about a vertical axis.

The mountings are designed to protect the rubber inserts from oil and physical damage. A levelling device can also be provided for machines requiring precision leveling. The pads are made in oil resisting rubber and can be used on all kinds of floor. The rubber friction pad provided at the bottom obviates the necessity of bolting the machine to floor. Easy Mounts can be conveniently arranged in tandem for doubling deflection for very low frequency vibrations.

Features

EFSRH Spring Hangers consist of freestanding. laterally stable steel springs in series with a molded elastomeric element assembled into a stamped and welded hanger bracket. The hanger brackets and the springs are powder coated. Spring vibration isolation hangers are designed to provide high efficiency isolation from structure-borne vibration and noise. Springs are color-coded and in compliance with ASHRAE guidelines, springs are designed with a horizontal stiffness of at least 100% of the vertical stiffness, to ensure stability. This is achieved through high spring diameter to operating height ratios - 0.85 to 1.0 (as against the minimum of 0.80 required by ASHRAE).. These Hangers are double deflection Hangers specially suitable for Seismic

This unique range of open spring mounting uses an integral rubber end fixing of the spring which sets them apart from all other designs. Loose springs and plates are now history and high frequency and noise attenuation is provided regardless of whether rubber seating pad is used or not.

Originally designed for use with type IPF Inertia Pouring Frames, the EFOS Mountings are now widely used to isolate vibration from every conceivable type of rotating and reciprocating machine. Some examples being air handing units, axial and centrifugal fans, low level pipe work, ductwork, condensing units, pumps, generating sets, chillers, etc. Where control of transient motion is required open spring mountings can be used in conjunction with our Viscous Dampers Type EFVD.

Standard size 18” x 18” x 3/4” (450 x 450 x19mm) consists of 81 - 2” (50mm) modules. The 2” (50mm) squares are separated by a thin web that is easily cut to provide evenly dimensioned pads such as 2” x 2” (50 x50mm), 2” x 4” (50 x 100mm), 4” x 4” (100 x100mm), 6” x 8” (150 x 200 mm), etc. EFWP is one of the thickest, most versatile and efficient pads in the market.

3. No need for bolting.

Selection Procedure

1. Compute the total load in kg. to be supported by Easyflex Pads. This includes machine weight and work load it carries and also concrete or steel base or inertia block if used.
2. Determine unit loading to suit type of machine and supporting ground structure 23 kg. per square inch is practical and effective loading and is recommended for most type of machines and equipment for isolation of sustained vibration.
3. Divide the static weight by unit load to get total area of Easyflex Pad that is required.
4. Arrange the total area of into adequate number of pads that are necessary to give stable support and to avoid base distortion. The area of each pad should be in proportion to the load carried by it so that the unit loading or stress on all pads will be approximately the same.
5. The pads should be placed in such way that uniform deflection is obtained. Uniform load distribution prevents over loading and possible premature failure of some of the mountings, prevents sagging and enables the machine to maintain the normal horizontal position and make maximum isolation possible.
