Acoustic enclosure for Vermilion pump set
On a Vermilion site two pumps were installed in a 10ft standard container. Sound measurements revealed that the installation emitted too much noise. Alara-Lukagro supplied an acoustic enclosure for the pump sets, which was installed around the existing container.

Alara-Lukagro designed and produced the acoustic enclosure for Vermilion, treated it (with a powder-coating) and subsequently installed it on location. A heavy panel structure was selected to effectively attenuate the low frequency noise from the pumps. An acoustic louvre was installed in the enclosure to extract the heat produced by the electric engines.
