NOTES:
| 1. | Edit the Table above to suit where isolator, other than those shown, are used, such as for seismic restraints and position limit stops. |
| 2. | For suspended floors lighter than 100 mm (4 inch) thick concrete, select deflection requirements from next higher span. |
| 3. | For separate chiller building on grade, pump isolators may be omitted. |
| 4. | Direct bolt fire pumps to concrete base. Provide pads (D) for domestic water booster pump package. |
| 5. | For projects in seismic areas, use only SS & DS type isolators and snubbers. |
| 6. | For floor mounted in-line centrifugal blowers (ARR 1): use "B" type in lieu of "R" type base. |
| 7. | Suspended: Use "H" isolators of same deflection as floor mounted. |
