The Santa Fe, N.M., manufacturer said the new filter/ silencer is designed to reduce PM emissions by 85% and carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons by up to 99%. The CleanAIR Filter/Silencer has an all stainless-steel construction and is fully insulated for sound attenuation, the company said.
The concept of the CleanAIR filter/silencer combines the benefits of a silencer for sound reduction and the benefits of diesel particulate filters for emissions control into one space-saving unit.
"We designed our Permit filter/silencer specifically to fit facilities that need to reduce emissions and sound," said CleanAIR Sales Engineer, Daniel Serrano. "By combining our diesel particulate filters with a silencer, the customer no longer needs two separate units that take up a lot of space. Our Permit filter/ silencer does the job of both by eliminating emissions while at the same time providing sound reduction. It also reduces the overall cost."
Available for all stationary engine sizes, the custom-designed Permit filter/silencer is manufactured using 304 stainless steel. Utilizing CleanAIR's integrated approach, the product is designed and manufactured in-house, including: product design; flow, stress and sound modeling; filter catalyzation; and custom fabrication of the silencer shell. Each Permit filter/silencer is fully insulated to reduce heat loss and provide sound attenuation.
