System | Material to be sound-insulated | Efficiency, dB | Total thickness, mm | Noises to be reduced | Super power and its application |
ZIPS Vector | Foam concrete, brick, tongue-and-groove block | ΔRw up to 12-14 dB | 53 | Talking, TV, radio | The thinnest panel of the ZIPS family. More often is used for sound-insulation of walls and partitions. |
ZIPS Modul | Brick, concrete | ΔRw = 16-18 dB | 83 | Loud talking, shouting, TV, dog barking, water noise | Effective system, suitable for solution of 80% of all household noise issues |
ZIPS Cinema | Concrete, brick | ΔRw = 19-20 dB | 133 | Loud talking, shouting, TV, dog barking, water noise, noise from a loud audio system or a home theater | The most effective sound-insulating system in the entire ZIPS range. When you use this system, it means that everything that can be done has been done. |
ZIPS III-Ultra | Foam concrete, brick, concrete | ΔRw = 16-18 dB | 55 | Loud talking, shouting, TV, dog barking, water noise | The ultimate system in terms of the thickness/efficiency ratio. Despite being thin, it ensures great additional sound insulation and is suitable for 80% of tasks. |
ZIPS-4 | Foam concrete, brick, concrete | ΔRw = 16-19 dB | 55-105 | Loud talking, shouting, TV, dog barking, water noise | Family flagship . This system is for those who value their time and money. It not only ensures top efficiency despite its lesser thickness, but also allows to level the surface using adjusting supports, thus avoiding wet processes. |
ZIPS Slim | Foam concrete, aerated concrete, tongue-and-groove block | ΔRw = 11 dB | 37.5 | Conversations, TV, radio | The thinnest panel of ZIPS family. It is used for sound insulation of inter-flat walls made of foam concrete with a thickness of < 200 mm |
Installation of the panel system ZIPS must be carried out in strict accordance with the installation manual.
Composition and description
ZIPS III-Ultra Sound-insulating panel system consists of 42.5 mm thick ZIPS III-Ultra sandwich panels and special 12.5 mm finishing plasterboard. Total thickness of the system is 55 mm.
The layers of glass-fiber board and moisture-resistant backerboard make up sandwich panels ZIPS III-Ultra. Each sandwich panel includes 8 vibroinsulating joints for mounting.
Eight special vibration supports made of Sylomer are used to mount the system onto the wall or floor slab. These supports bulge more than 10 mm above the sandwich panel plane, but when assembled, they are pressed up and the minimum system thickness combined with the plasterboard amounts to 55 mm.
Storage
Store ZIPS III-Ultra panels in a dry, enclosed space, away from any precipitation.
The panels should be laid horizontally on wooden pallets, boards or other shoring materials to exclude sagging.
