• Determine the number and size of the damping mats that are to be installed:
– For outer pipe diameters < 900 mm, see section 9.3.1.
– For outer pipe diameters > 900 mm, see section 9.3.2.
• Cut the damping mat to size.
• Remove part of the protective foil (see Fig. 9.3).
• Fix the part of the damping mat without protective foil to the pipe (see Fig. 9.4 a).
• Remove the protective foil bit by bit and fix the damping mat to the pipe at the same time.
• Use a roller to fix the damping mat to the pipe.
• Press the roller on the damping mat.
– First, move the roller from the middle to the edges of the damping mat (see 1 in Fig. 9.4 b).
– Then move the roller in the middle of the damping mat along the pipe circumference (see 2 in Fig. 9.4 b).
• Repeat the steps until all damping mats are fixed to the pipe. The damping mats are installed edge to edge (see Fig. 9.4
c).
