Pneumatic Mufflers and Silencers

Reduce Pneumatic Exhaust Noise and Control Air Discharge

Pneumatic mufflers and silencers reduce the noise created when compressed air exhausts from valves, cylinders, vacuum generators and other pneumatic devices. PneumaticHub supplies multiple silencer styles for general industrial machinery, automation and compressed air exhaust applications.

Beyond noise reduction, some exhaust devices can help diffuse high-velocity air and reduce the nuisance of direct exhaust blasts. The correct silencer should provide adequate exhaust flow so it does not create excessive backpressure in the circuit.

Muffler and Silencer Types

• Coned silencers
• Pneumatic breathers
• Aluminum silencers
• Throttle silencers
• Plastic high-flow silencers

Why Use a Pneumatic Silencer?

• Open pneumatic exhaust ports can be loud, especially on high-cycle machinery. A properly sized muffler can make the working environment more comfortable while maintaining the required exhaust capacity.
• Silencers should be inspected because contamination can gradually increase restriction and affect actuator or valve performance.

Common Applications

• Directional control valve exhaust ports
• Vacuum venturi exhaust
• Cylinder circuits
• Packaging machinery
• Assembly equipment
• General factory automation
