Herm

The HERM isolator incorporates the use of a traditional Enidine helical wire rope isolator encased in a proprietary elastomeric compound. The stainless steel cable of the mount provides for a rugged construction, while the  elastomer provides additional damping and stiffness. This unique design results in a fail safe mount with a higher stiffness and energy absorption capacity.

The mount is readily scalable and performance easily tuned by varying the wire diameter, loop size, number of loops and elastomeric properties. The HERM isolator has proven particularly strong in low natural frequency “soft deck” applications of 12-16 Hz, reducing output G’s to below 15G’s. Its sealed nature of construction also provides for easy NBC washdown. Since the mounting size of the HERM isolator is virtually identical to that of standard wire rope isolators used in many shipboard application s, equipment upgrades are both simple and seamless with drop-in replacement capability.

HERM Features:
• Lowest profile design for a 14 Hz deck solution
• A variety of material combinations available
• Mounting identical to traditional Wire Rope Isolators
• Readily “tunable” to meet a wide range of natural frequencies
• Greater load carrying capability

HERM Benefits:
• Easy retrofit on fielded equipment
• Fewer mounts required to support a given load
• Smaller “footprint” than other mounts
• Compatible with NBC wash down requirements
• Improved noise attenuation compared to standard Wire Rope Isolators
