What is a compressor inlet filter silencer?

A compressor inlet filter silencer is a component commonly used on the inlet of compressors and also functions as a breather or bleed in filter. Our models feature a unique 'hockey puck' style filter element that maximizes surface area over its given size.

What is the difference between a silencer and an air filter?

Air filters with a silencer reduce the noise associated with the intake process. Inlet control filters help reduce power overload conditions by preventing air intake until the compressor motor comes up to speed. Note: Product availability is real-time basis and adjusted continuously.

What are Inlet and outlet silencers?

Based on their positioning on a fan or blower, inlet and outlet silencers have multiple descriptions including: Each silencer is designed and built for a specific pressure loss and airflow velocity to meet your exact noise attenuation requirement, with industrial silencer casings fabricated from heavy gauge steel.

Why do I need a silencer?

Silencers to control the noise and pulsation from the inlet and outlets of roots type blowers, and other lobe type blowers Find Out More Silencers to control noise from the inlet and outlet of screw type compressors Find Out More Silencers to reduce the inlet and outlet noise from centrifugal fans, and other multi-bladed fans or air movers

What is a rotary screw compressor?

A rotary screw compressor is a positive displacement type of gas compressor which employs two rotors that have an inter-meshing helical screws machined into the surface of the rotors to progress gas, usually air, from one side of the machine to the other, to achieve compression. The rotors are normally close fitting with small gaps between them.
