Steam Turbine Noise Control

Engineered noise control solutions for steam turbines — designed, manufactured, and installed by ARK Noise Control (India)

Why Steam Turbine Noise Needs Control

Steam turbine installations have multiple noise sources: turbine casing noise (95-110 dB(A)), gearbox noise (90-105 dB(A)), generator noise (85-95 dB(A)), steam vent noise during start-up (120-140 dB(A)), and safety valve discharge (120-140+ dB(A)). A comprehensive approach is needed to control all noise sources.
