Commissioning Silencers

Commissioning Silencers for Steam Blowing Operations

Description
Technical Data

Commissioning silencers are designed for temporary usage to vent down high velocity steam or air. They also collect and remove possible debris present during new pipeline construction that could cause damage to downstream equipment once the pipeline is commissioned and other equipment is installed.

Steam blowing operations generate substantial noise levels that pose additional safety risks to personnel and surrounding communities. Therefore, specialized commissioning silencers are essential for these applications. These silencers must be exceptionally robust to handle debris (including tools and weld slag), easily maintainable for cleaning, and deliver superior acoustic performance.

Our standard commissioning silencer is engineered to handle steam flows exceeding 500,000 kg/hr (1.1 million lbs./hr.) while providing 35-40 dB of noise reduction. Enhanced noise attenuation up to 50+ dB is achievable through an optional acoustic splitter package installed at the silencer outlet.

Skid-mounted design for simplified transportation and installation on level surfaces
Modular parallel configuration available for worldwide shipping optimization and high mass flow applications
Horizontal inlet with removable flat cover for efficient debris extraction and maintenance
Rental options available for short-term commissioning projects (weeks to months)

Relevant Industries

Oil and gas refineries, natural gas processing plants and LNG facilities represent remarkably intensive and acoustically challenging industrial environments, generating intense noise levels from complex processing equipment, high-pressure systems and continuous operations. Hydrocarbon processing facilities require comprehensive noise control solutions to ensure worker safety, regulatory compliance, community relations and operational efficiency.

Industrial applications generate considerable noise as a result of high-capacity machinery, continuous operations and complex infrastructure. Without proper noise control, these environments can pose risks to employee health, disrupt surrounding communities and violate environmental and occupational noise regulations. Implementing tailored noise mitigation solutions of acoustic walls, noise barriers and silencers while utilizing acoustic modeling, CFD, FEA and noise measurements to design solutions not only supports safety, but also enhances operational efficiency and community relations.
