In industrial setups, diesel generator (DG) sets are crucial for uninterrupted power. However, one common issue across industries is vibration. These vibrations can cause damage to the generator frame, building structure, and nearby machinery. This is where rubber mountings for DG sets play an important role.
What Are Rubber Mountings?
Rubber mountings are flexible components installed between the DG set and the floor or base. They help absorb and dampen vibrations during operation. Unlike rigid supports, these mountings provide cushioning to reduce shocks and improve machine stability.
Why DG Sets Need Rubber Mountings
Constant vibrations from DG sets can lead to:
- Loosening of bolts and parts
- Noise pollution in the facility
- Cracks in the base or flooring
- Reduced performance and lifespan of the DG set
Using rubber shock mountings reduces all of the above risks, ensuring efficient, quieter, and longer-lasting operation.
Benefits of Rubber Mountings for DG Sets:
- Vibration Isolation: Minimizes transmission of vibration to the floor or nearby structures.
- Noise Reduction: Decreases ambient noise levels, making the working environment safer.
- Better Equipment Life: Reduces stress on engine components, increasing longevity.
- Cost Efficiency: Lowers maintenance needs and downtime.
Where Are Rubber Mountings Used?
- Factories and manufacturing units
- Hospitals and data centers
- Commercial buildings and malls
- Telecom towers and infrastructure projects
