Amplify productivity.
Minimize distractions.
In today's fast-paced environments, noise can significantly impact employee comfort, productivity, and well-being. Gast Sound Shield offers a simple-yet-effective solution to reduce pump and air compressor noise, creating a more pleasant and efficient workspace.
Where Quiet Meets Performance
Sound Shield technology cuts noise without compromising pump performance.
Industry-leading, patent-pending Sound Shield technology reduces sound levels and perceived loudness of the 86/87R and 120R families of Gast pumps and compressors without affecting performance, resulting in a quieter, more comfortable working environment.
Key benefits for your business:
Pump and Air Compressor Noise Reduction
Sound Shield delivers up to 17% reduction in perceived loudness at maximum pressure compared to a standard Gast pump.
Minimal Effect on Compressor or Pump Performance and Life
A Gast compressor or pump upgraded with Sound Shield technology maintains 95% of the airflow of a standard model. Pressure (up to 130 psi), vacuum, and running temperature are not affected, and product life is maintained.
Reduce Hassle and Complexity
Sound Shield is a simple, integrated solution from a single supplier. It eliminates the need to source, purchase, and install additional sound reduction components such as foam insulation, mufflers, covers, or cabinets.
Simple Installation
Sound Shield technology was designed to be retrofitted in the field or at our facility. All parts are kitted—down to the screws—and installation takes as little as four steps using common tools.
