Abstract
A housing defines a housing interior. An air pump is within the housing interior. A first set of dampers supports the air pump within the housing. The first set of dampers at least partially isolates vibration of the air pump from the housing. A second set of dampers is configured to at least partially isolate vibration of the air pump from the housing. The second set of dampers arranged in series with the first set of dampers.
Claims18
A fluid exchange unit comprising:
- a housing defining a housing interior;
- a fluid pump positioned within the housing interior;
- at least one tube;
- a first set of dampers supporting the fluid pump within the housing, the first set of dampers at least partially isolating vibration of the fluid pump from the housing;
- a second set of dampers configured to at least partially isolate vibration of the fluid pump from the housing, the second set of dampers arranged in series with the first set of dampers;
- and
- a fluid pump chassis supporting the fluid pump within the housing interior by the first set of dampers, the second set of dampers being between the fluid pump chassis and the housing, the fluid pump chassis comprising means for retaining the at least one tube.
