Abstract

A horizontally mounted compressor is supported from below by a vibration isolator located as close as practical to the vertical projection of the center of gravity of the compressor and this isolator supports most, if not all, of the weight of the compressor. The ends of the compressor are supported by isolators located as close as practical to the axis of the compressor.
