Crushing Plant Noise

Crushing equipment and crusher plants or buildings, by their very nature is noisy, and the auxiliary equipment found in an around crushing equipment such as chutes, transfer stations, screens, etc., can at times be noisier than the Crusher itself. Ear protective devices may be required if noise levels are higher than those allowed by law. If ear protective devices are undesirable consideration should be given to reducing the amount of noise exposure that an operator or maintenance man may be subjected to, in other words, shorter working hours.
Although alteration of the crusher to change its noise characteristics may be economically impossible, many plants have found that the installation of a relatively inexpensive operator’s station can improve noise conditions. The operator can see the equipment in operation and still be protected from the noise through the installation of acoustical tile, double windows, air conditioning equipment, etc. These working conditions will normally result in a more efficient operation and reduce potential injuries from noise.
Many plant operators are finding that an operator’s tower erected at an elevation above most of the equipment provides both safety features for the operator and increased efficiency in plant operation.
