MANAGING NOISE EFFECTIVELY

Sound Testing

What is sound testing?

Sound testing is the process of measuring the sound pressure level (SPL) in order to assess the noise emitted by a particular source. It is typically used to evaluate the performance of equipment, determine the best location for installations, or assess the effectiveness of noise mitigation measures.

Machine Sound Attenuation

Minetek has developed a comprehensive range of sound testing capabilities designed to enable industrial leaders to achieve operational excellence.

Our testing solutions provide the basis for the development of sound attenuation and noise mitigation programmes, enabling operators to demonstrate they effectively meet safety, regulatory and community expectations.

Designed to meet ISO 6393/6395 Standard requirements.

There are a number of benefits associated with sound testing, including:

  • Enabling the assessment of noise emissions from a particular source
  • Evaluating the performance of equipment or installations
  • Identifying the best location for installations
  • Demonstrating compliance with safety, regulatory or community expectations

Kipoi have successfully utilized MINETEK WATER evaporators on our process water pond to remove mine water and has contributed to help with our water balance. We are currently in the process of moving these units to where the catchment area is larger giving us better utilization of the evaporators.

The relatively small fans allowed us to utilise our existing bulkhead, where we were severely limited by space, which allowed us to use our existing infrastructure and dramatically reduce downtime in the mine during the change out. The installation was completed safely... and allows us to scale our ventilation flow with their pressure on demand system to suit our production profile.

MINETEK's installations have been very successful and prompted the contracting of MINETEK to conduct a full mobile fleet and fixed plant noise monitoring assessment at the Acland mine site.

MINETEK understand our business, and our requirements, and always display a solid commitment to meeting our goals. We enjoy an open and honest business relationship, and we consider ours to be a lifelong partnership.

Liebherr Australia Mining Manager

After investigating a raft of different methods from sprinkler systems through to desalination systems (too costly for little benefit) we decided on the MINETEK WATER units. The evaporators were easy to install and once activated ran trouble free. We were very happy with the service from MINETEK and the reliability of the system.
