Vacuum pump for Kongsberg placement help

We are moving our shop to accommodate our new Kongsberg xn24 that is being installed the 1st week of Jan. My main question is the vacuum pump really that loud and does it need to be in separate area/encased in same area? The cutter will be in an area with other printers and general shop functions. I am not sure what would be best. Any experience/thoughts would be very helpful.

We have a Multicam MG. I'm assuming you are talking about the table vacuum. Ours is in a separate room, with the HVAC unit. It is loud!! It's about 20 ft from the machine itself and is connected to it with 4" pvc pipes.

I wouldn't put the cnc router anywhere near the printers. Even with a vacuum sucking chips, it still make a lot of dust!

Hope this is helpfull...
