Noise strategy for machinery or installations
Upgrading machinery or an installation calls for a clear acoustic problem definition before engineering decisions are made. We diagnose equipment noise under actual operating conditions and translate the findings into requirements and recommendations for manufacturers, designers and operators preparing further changes.
Translate equipment diagnosis into acoustic requirements
We start with the equipment's function, its use and the reason for the proposed change. Configuration, operating states and reported problems are reviewed, and available acoustic information is interpreted in its actual installation context. This establishes whether the main question concerns the source itself, its interaction with the installation or its impact during particular operations.
The diagnosis supports requirements that can be passed to the team responsible for development or modernisation. We define relevant reference conditions, information needs and criteria for subsequent comparison. Recommendations identify directions for engineering work and dependencies to consider, distinguishing findings supported by measurements from assumptions about a configuration that has not yet been designed or implemented.
The service covers diagnosis, data and design recommendations; it excludes research and development work and chamber testing. The final solution requires preparation by the responsible team and verification under specified conditions. We identify a suitable comparison approach so that differences in load or surroundings are not incorrectly treated as the effect of modernisation alone.

What you receive
You receive acoustic requirements, organised data and design recommendations for the identified equipment or installation. The material describes the problem, reference conditions and issues for the design team to resolve. It supports modernisation and later performance checks without including R&D activities, prototype development or testing of equipment in a chamber.
Scope and limitations
