Mount Selection Guide

Elastomer Selection Guide

Sizing Instructions

STEP 1: Fill out the Application Worksheet.

STEP 2: Looking at the Mounting Diagrams along each side of the Selection Guide, select the diagram that best fits the application. If the System Natural Frequency from the Application Worksheet is higher than the values shown in the Selection Guide and the Temperature Range is acceptable, select the smallest model series that will carry the Load required for the application. Refer to the Data Sheet in the pocket on Page 4 for more information on the selected series. If the mount that you have selected does not meet the above criteria, select another mount and repeat the selection process. If you have special requirements, send Corry Rubber Corporation your completed Application Worksheet and an Applications Engineer will contact you with a solution.

STEP 3: On the Data Sheet, consult the Load vs. System Natural Frequency Graph for the required Mounting Oreientation. Locate the intersection point of the System Natural Frequency (fn) and the Supported Load per Mount (W) calculated for the application. The Model Number represented by the line at, or dierectly below, this intersection point is the best choice for the application.

STEP 4: Where required, select the desired Hardware Options from the data sheets. If no hardware options are available, place “00” in the Hardware Options portion of the part number. Specify metric or imperial model. *(See Ordering information on Page 4). *NOTE: Stud, Machinery, and Leveling Mounts must include metric or imperial designation. Plateform, Multiplane, Low Profile, Ring and Bushing and Centerbond Mounts do not require metric or imperial designation

Sample Problems

A 200 lb (890 N) pump turning at 1725 RPM is causing vibrations which are affecting the readings of nearby sensitive equipment. In order to control these vibrations, isolation mounts will be placed under the base. A 1/2” diameter bolt hole exists in the center of each of the 4 legs of the base. The isolators will be bolted to the floor. The ambient temperature around the motor is 65°F to 185°F (18°C to 85°C).

STEP 1: From the Application Woksheet, we know:

  • Working Temperature Range = 65°F to 185°F (18°C to 85°C).
  • System Natural Frequency for 80% isolation (fn) = 9.6 Hz
  • Supported Load per Mount (W) = 50 lbs (220 N)

STEP 2: From the Selection Guide, we conclude:
A Machinery Mount can be used in this application.

  • The geometry will work.
  • The Lowest System Natural Frequency for Machinery Mounts is lower than the Calculated Natural Frequency for this application.
  • The EMM20N Series has a mount which will carry the Required Supported Load.

STEP 3: From the EMM20N Machinery Mount Series Data Sheet, we determine:

  • The model number EMM20N – 0060 mount is the best selection.

STEP 4: From the Hardware Options & Ordering Information sections, we conclude:

  • There is no optional hardware required for the Machinery Mounts.
  • An Imperial mount specification is needed.
  • Four EMM20N – 0060 – 00 – I elastomeric isolation mounts should be ordered.
