Static Deflection Guide

 

The table provides a guide to the isolator type and necessary static deflection for given values of operating speed and isolation efficiency. It also suggests appropriate levels of isolation efficiency for various operating locations.

To use the table, read the minimum static deflection directly against machine disturbing frequency (operating speed) and required isolation efficiency. Two static deflection figures appear, one for basement or on-grade installations; the other for upper level installations where some allowance is made for flexibility of the supporting structure.Select the appropriate figure.For rubber and pad mounts, static deflections have been corrected for average rubber hardness to approximate selections based on dynamic natural frequency (Please refer to Isolation Efficiency Chart)
