Linear Spring-Type
Vibration Isolators
for C27, C32, 3512, 3516
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The most effective isolators for low frequency vibration are of steel spring design. They can isolate up
to 95 percent of all vibration and noise transmitted from rotating machinery to the foundation or
mounting surface. Conversely, isolators can absorb disturbances generated by adjacent machinery
and prevent damage from being transmitted to idle equipment.
Spring-type linear vibration isolators are available as attachments for listed generator sets to be used in
stationary applications. These isolators permit mounting the generator set on a surface capable of supporting
only the static load.
Spring-type isolator is an all welded steel telescoping housed isolators. Each isolator is packaged with
three (3) spring inserts. The springs are freestanding stable springs and are designed for 19 mm
(0.75-inch) deflection at rated load. The spring wires meet/comply with: SAE 1065, ASTM A229-56,
MIL QQ-W-428 Type 1
Each isolator is furnished with spring adjusting bolts, resilient neoprene alignment inserts and non-skid
neoprene acoustical pad cemented to the base plate.
