Model LPSH Low Profile Spring Hangers, Architectural Non-Seismic
LPSH Series are low profile spring hangers designed only for low frequency applications where a disturbance is occurring from within or outside of an area that is to be protected from low frequency vibration.
The LPSH Series isolators contain a standard coil spring with up to 2″ of static deflection. The spring isolator is seated in a neoprene cup with an integral bushing to prevent the upper support attachment from coming in contact with the isolator housing. The springs are color-coded to indicate load capacity and for ease of installation and inspection in the field.
Like the LPRH Series, the LPSH Series hangers are designed for the additional capability of supporting secondary ceilings and/or mechanical services from the same housing. This design only requires about 4″ above the cold rolled channels for installation. The unique housing construction of the LPSH hangers allow for two standard 1 1/2″ cold rolled channels at each isolator location. Pencil rods, clips, straps, nuts and bolts are not required for fastening the channels to the isolator.
The LPSH Series is provided with a 1/2″diameter eyelet at the top for use in the event that threaded inserts for attachment are not used for installation. Additional bolts and eyelets at the bottom are factory supplied if additional services need to be supported.
