The generator has been acoustically treated, but if morestringent local environmental specifications require additional noise attenuation, pleaseconsider adding noise barriers or the construction of special rooms, etc.4.2. Acoustic Material considerationConsider the following when selecting acoustic material: Foam is not recommended as an acoustic material, because of it’s low density it is apoor acoustic insulator. And not all foams are fire retardant. A concrete block enclosure is an excellent barrier for noise reduction. The blocksmay be filled with sand to make the wall denser. However, concrete housing tendsto become hot and supplementary cooling methods will be required for optimumengine performance.4.3 Fire protectionEach country has its own rules and regulations controlling the design of buildings to preventfires. Fire departments are reliable sources of information to determine installationcompliance. The installation of generators, must comply with the provisions of the local firedepartment.
