AirComParts Exhaust Diffuser, 3/8 in. NPT, Compressed Air Noise Muffler
Compressed air is loud when it leaves in a hurry. A 3/8 in. port venting to atmosphere, whether it is an unloader dumping on every cycle or a solenoid exhausting, makes a sharp crack that carries across a shop and contributes to the noise dose everyone in the building is taking all day. A diffuser screws into that port and spreads the discharge over a much larger area, so the air leaves slowly and quietly instead of all at once.
Specification
- Connection: 3/8 in. NPT
- AirComParts part S4019
What it is for
Pilot valve and unloader vents, tank blowdown lines, directional and solenoid valve exhaust ports, and the pop off vent on a pressure switch. Anywhere a 3/8 in. tapping is open to atmosphere and making a noise you would rather not hear.
Keep it clean
A diffuser is also a filter in reverse, and in a dirty or oily line it will eventually load up. A clogged diffuser raises back pressure on whatever is trying to exhaust through it, which can stop an unloader from unloading or slow a valve down. If a valve starts cycling sluggishly, pull the diffuser first and see if the problem walks away. They are cheap enough to treat as consumable.
AirComParts 3/8 in. NPT exhaust diffuser for quieting compressed air discharge from unloaders, blowdown lines and pneumatic valve exhaust ports.
