Noise Enclosures
Noise enclosures, (also referred to as acoustic enclosures), are a key design element in bringing industrial, process, and manufacturing facilities to safer noise levels for a better work environment.
Designed to capture the noise source or the people impacted by the noise, the proper design of a noise enclosure will account for operator and maintenance access, ventilation, safety codes, air quality and egress, and possible needs for future expansion. IAC Acoustics modular noise enclosures can be custom designed for many noisy applications.
Industrial & Environmental Applications
Applications that significantly benefit from acoustic enclosures includes Control Rooms, Plastic Granulators, In-Line Product Test Stations, Backup Power Generators, Compressors, Manufacturing Equipment, Positive Displacement Blowers, Test Chambers, Vacuum Blowers, Air-Cooled Chillers, Cooling Towers, Wastewater Treatment Plants, Generators, Fans, and Blowers.

Product Features
IAC Acoustics’ noise enclosures consist of pre-engineered, modular acoustical metal panels (“building blocks”) that can be configured and assembled into a wide variety of structures used to control and reduce excessive noise levels in industrial, commercial, institutional and community environments. Moduline is particularly suited for applications requiring a high degree of noise reduction of 40 decibels or more combined with rugged durability. Moduline is particularly well suited to:
- Integration of lighting, ventilation, fire fighting systems, air-conditioning, etc.
- Available sound and vibration isolating floor systems
- Designs for interior and exterior installation sites
- Available Noise-Lock® sound control door & window systems
- Installation services that can be included in IAC Acoustics’ scope of supply
Acoustic Enclosure Walls, Ceilings & Floors
- Moisture protection for absorption materials prevents entrapment of volatile or corrosive liquids
- Noise-Foil® sound absorption system reduces reverberant build-up within existing “hard” structures
- Optional Fire-Noise-Lock® construction provides certification of 1.5 hour fire rating — all components shipped with UL label
Acoustic Enclosure Doors & Other Accessories
- Single and double-leaf “Cam-Lift”, no-sill personnel doors. Clear opening to 8′ x 14′ (2438 x 4267 mm). Special designs for larger openings available.
- Panic hardware
- Manual and automated single and double-leaf sliding doors
- Removable panel details — all hardware captive
