12.1 General Description
The enclosure housing, Figure 20, is a completely self-contained, weatherproof,
insulated, and sound-attenuated system. The enclosure is mounted on the package skid
and supported by a heavy-duty frame. The enclosure sides include removable panels
and/or doors to allow access to major components for inspection and maintenance and to
permit removal of components by forklift or overhead crane. The engine area is furnished
with bi-fold type doors to facilitate engine removal from either side of the package. All
enclosure doors include a three-point heavy-duty door locking mechanism, handles,
hinges, latching mechanism, internal lock override release, restraining device, and
attaching hardware.
The enclosure panels are treated with fiberglass material for sound attenuation and
thermal insulation. Weather stripping is installed between all panels for sealing and sound
attenuation. The enclosure is normally factory assembled on the package skid prior to
shipment, but can be drop shipped pre-assembled for site installation or shipped as a kit
for site assembly and installation. The following standard features are included with the
basic enclosure:
Inlet and exhaust ventilation silencers
Single fan ventilation system
