providing low sound levels (therefore contributing to a greater social well-being), which are also guaranteed to be able to cover power requirements, whether it be for continuous use or in emergency situations.<\/h2>\n<p>One of these countries is Chile, a market with great possibilities and in constant expansion in the energy sector (especially in the field of renewable energy), for which we\u2019ve designed, manufactured and supplied a total of 18 <a href=\"https:\/\/genesalenergy.com\/en\/specialised-generators\/soundproof-generator-sets\/\">super-soundproof gensets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The generator sets were tailor-made according to the client\u2019s needs, and two different models were designed (five gensets of 500\/550 kVA and 12 of 1000\/1100 kVA), but with a common denominator: their great level of sound attenuation: 65 dB at seven metres distance at the point of maximum emission.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve this, the engineering team and the sales department, which at Genesal Energy always work hand in hand, kept the basic cooling requirements into account, without surpassing the length and width of the 40\u2019HC shipping container which encases the generator sets.<\/p>\n<div  class='avia-video av-kanr1687-4991a25729eb2a3e38e1bc820e022500 avia-video-16-9 av-no-preview-image avia-video-load-always av-lazyload-immediate

control cabinets, silencers, etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On the other hand, to achieve a sound level of 65dB it was necessary to decrease the sound levels by 43\u20195 and 48 dB respectively. <\/strong>To reach this goal, we selected different materials and solutions, some applied in exactly the same way in both models, but others had to be adapted due to the unique characteristics of each unit, which went beyond their engine\u2019s respective power ratings, to be able to comply with the technical specifications requested by the client.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, once the open-field tests of the prototypes
