1. General Information
Solflex produces SonaSafe acoustic housing for a wide range of Heat Pump,
Air Conditioning and Refrigeration systems.
SonaSafe SQV* Serie
2. Technical Description
Professional sound reduction by double-walled enclosure in attractive, straight design.
The housing serves mainly as a problem solution for all noise disturbances and
compliance with all legal regulations (including statutory night rest). Furthermore,
access to the thus protected outdoor unit is prevented for unauthorized persons. A
deliberate destruction of the valuable and difficult to replace outdoor unit is excluded
(Only opening of service doors with tools). The enclosure consists of a stable
aluminium frame construction with inwardly screwed connectors. All panels can be
easily removed by means of 3D closures. The required special tools are provided with.
Access to the enclosed outdoor unit is from all sides possible. The assembly of the
acoustic housing is possible by 2 workers in about 2 hours without further tools such as
expensive lifting cranes. By default, the enclosure comes with a 50mm thick insulation.
The inner plate consists of perforated galvanized steel with a mesh size of
50x50x10mm. The outside plate is standard powder coated in RAL9010 (pure white).
Between the double-walled plates, there is a layer of non-combustible glass fibre
insulation that is protected by a resistant and water-repellent coating on the side of the
perforated plate.

3. Sound level reduction
The sound insulation performance of our acoustic enclosures was measured by
an independent laboratory, according to DIN EN ISO 3744.
Measurement method
• Sound power measurement (MP1) of the calibrated reference sound
source over a spherical envelope with 12 microphones. Acoustic data:
Class 2 according to DIN EN ISO 3744, as third octave spectrum and
octave spectrum.
• Sound power measurement (MP2) of the Solflex SonaSafe acoustic
enclosure with reference sound source inside the acoustic housing over
a spherical envelope with 12 microphones. Acoustic data: Class 2
according to DIN EN ISO 3744, as third octave spectrum and octave
spectrum.
• The difference between the two measurements is the sound
insulation performance or sound level reduction of the acoustic
housing.
MP1 - MP2 = sound level reduction by acoustic enclosure*
*The measurement tolerance of +/- 1.5 dB(A) or tolerance range of 3 dB(A)
according to DIN EN ISO 3744 was not taken in consideration and we publish
only the minimum sound level reduction values.
Measurement result
The SQV acoustic enclosure has a nominal sound level reduction of 25 dB(A).
Nominal Sound Reduction SQV Acoustic Housing :
f [Hz] 63 125 250 500 1000 2000 4000 8000 16000
De [dB(A)] 5,1 7,8 18,6 24,1 24,4 24,9 27,1 26,5 23,3
The acoustic result depends on the device to be installed and is prone to
deviations due to the particular conditions at the installation site.

The second step is to mount the base frame. After this the aluminium grille is placed
with the white sound insulation panels, thereby guaranteeing the stability of the base
frame for the next steps.

The doors are fitted with a rotary latch closure and are lockable. The panels are fastened
with a rotating latch, which makes the system reversible from all sides.
The build-up time for the sound and vandal protection per built-in device is about 1.5
hours with 2 men.

7.1 Foundation
The foundation must meet the relevant static and sound propagation requirements and
must feature a proper drain for water. It must be level and smooth. The resonance
frequency of the support structure must be distinctly different from the excitation
frequency of the rotating machine components (Heat Pump, Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration system).
An uneven foundation might cause malfunction or jammed panels.Liability is excluded for
damage caused by installation on an uneven surface.

The bottom side of the outdoor unit and the upper side of the foundation must be at
the same level, whereupon the acoustic housing is placed.

The upper edge of the silencer will thus be at the same level as the upper edge of the
sound-absorbing wall, and the connection between the outdoor unit and the silencer
will be less stressed under extreme wind loads

Notiz 2:
If you use our SQV Feet for mounting the outdoor unit, the height is H: 470mm.
During production, it is taken into account that the upper edge of the silencer does not
extend far above the sound-absorbing wall. If our SQV Feet is not used, please tell us
the height H and the distance E between two outdoor units when ordering.

7.2 Installation of Heat
Pump, Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration outdoor unit
The correct installation position of the
air conditioning, refrigeration or heat
pump unit is decisive for the fit and
function of the acoustic housing.
Important Notice! For different
manufacturers of the installed
refrigeration, air conditioning and heat
pump outdoor unit, the ESP setting
must be adjusted manually on the PCB
so that the fan runs with a high static
pressure. Please contact the
refrigeration, air conditioning and heat
pump outdoor unit manufacturer for
more detailed information.
8. Maintenance and Service
8.1 General
For maintenance and service work on
the refrigeration, air-conditioning or
heat pump unit, the necessary panels
can be easily removed from the
acoustic housing.
Cleaning and maintenance of the
acoustic housing
•Remove other dirt with a damp
cloth; if necessary, use grease-
or oil-dissolving detergents
(concentrated neutral detergent
with pH between 8 and 9).
•Treat galvanized parts with
preservation spray.
•Regularly lubricate moving parts
such as panel locks with a
lubrication spray.
•Regularly treat seals.
•Repair any damage to the
coating, including areas that
show signs of corrosion, with
repair paint.
•Clean the unit thoroughly to
remove all construction dust and
other dirt.
•Prior to shipping, each unit is
carefully inspected at our factory.
8.2 Silencers
The sound insulation material of the
silencers should be checked for dust
during major maintenance work and, if
necessary, cleaned with a vacuum
cleaner.
If necessary, the silencers must be
checked for free passage, as this is
necessary for perfect air circulation
and the function of the installed
refrigeration, air conditioning or heat
pump unit.
8.3 Grounding
Depending on the local regulations
and position, we recommend to
carry out a grounding or lightning
protection.
8.4 Test run
After working on the acoustic housing,
the person responsible must ensure
that no persons are in the acoustic
housing before it is put into operation
again.
8.5 Removal and disposal
Metal parts and plastic parts are to be
recycled, per applicable regulations.
