Sintered silencer

The API Sintered Silencers are noise reducers for compressed air systems, manufactured from sintered spherical bronze and brass or steel. This series offers a wide range of models with truncated cone, flat, cylindrical, and mesh filtering elements, suitable for pressures up to 10 bar and temperatures from -10°C to +80°C. The silencers are available in sizes from M5x0.8 to 2″ and support BSP and metric threads. They comply with Reach and RoHS directives and are ideal for applications requiring low noise levels and high filtration efficiency. The series includes models with hexagonal wrench, stem for push-in fittings, and special venting solutions.
