An acoustic seal system ( 100 ). The system ( 100 ) includes a flexible sealing element ( 110 ) having a ridge ( 134 ) for engaging a cover ( 118 ) with a sealing interference fit, a plate ( 112 ) in which the flexible sealing element ( 110 ) is secured to the plate ( 112 ) and a mesh ( 114 ) for controlling particle contamination. The mesh ( 114 ) is secured to the plate ( 112 ), and the plate ( 112 ) and at least a portion of the flexible sealing element ( 110 ) are secured to a portion of an inner housing ( 116 ). The portion of the flexible sealing element ( 110 ) engages the portion of the inner housing ( 116 ) with a sealing interference fit. When the cover ( 118 ) engages the inner housing ( 116 ), the flexible sealing element ( 110 ) provides an acoustic seal between the cover ( 118 ) and the inner housing ( 116 ).
