If they are in the same workshop, they are often exposed to noise levels above the limit triggering the action i.e. 80 dB (A), in France, within...
Industrial silencers
- Details
Limiting noise emissions is a key factor for the successful integration of an industrial site into its environment, especially when it comes to gas and chemical industry facilties.
In a production unit for industrial gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen or carbon monoxide for the manufacture of chemicals, pressurized fluids are transported by pipelines and sometimes stored in on-site units.
