HRS S3 Isolation Base

S3 was designed to get closer to M3X2 performance in a more cost-effective package. Seven different materials, with a plinth construction that increases plinth mass by seven pounds over the R3X. The 51 lb S3 (1921 size) plinth is manufactured by laminating in a vacuum press alternating layers of high-density fabric reinforced resin and non-magnetic stainless steel plates on both sides of a decoupled mass energy dissipation core system.

The very top skin of the S3 plinth is the same high-quality, scratch-resistant surface layer used in the R3X and E1X — providing an identical cosmetic match in systems that use multiple isolation base models. Encompassing the S3 is a billet-machined heat-treated aluminum alloy stiffening trim, finished to exacting HRS standards. Low-profile 3-inch height. Configured at HRS for the specific component and reconfigurable at home for a different component.

Chief Engineer Michael Latvis: "The S3 is manufactured from a complex HRS plinth construction technology that increases the plinth performance to near reference level status. The new S3 plinth combined with the cost-effective assembly architecture derived from the lower price R3X makes the S3 an exceptional performance value."
