No one wants to deal with noise pollution. However, it is an issue that always seems to pop up. To counter it, we supply specialist tools. These would be our silencers. They allow their users to control the amount of noise that comes from their facilities. We have steam vent silencer designs as well as a number of others.
A fact you may not know about silencers is that they all have some interesting mechanical characteristics. There are several notable sections.
The silencer shell
Firstly, there is design pressure. This is normally greater than or equal to the permitted silencer back pressure.
Up next is design temperature. Typically, it is set to cover the maximum of the gas and ambient temperature ranges.
Minimum casing thickness is another one. The purchaser can set this or you can leave it to the vendor to decide.
Inlet assembly and diffuser
We will move onto the inlet assembly and diffuser section next. Here we will begin by looking at the hydrostatic testing first. This is not actually a requirement. However, it might prove necessary by regulations for objects that must follow specific codes. If you include the test, it is usually performed at 1.5 times design pressure.
The second thing we will talk about is registration. Diffusers and inlet assemblies created under certain codes might need registration so they satisfy the regulations.
Accessories
Finally, we have the accessories section. Up first is silencer discharge. The majority of silencers get installed outside. They discharge to the atmosphere directly.
We will finish things off by covering weather protection because it can be vital. If necessary, the protection options are normally 90º, 45º, and whistle cut cowls.
Do you need a specific steam vent silencer?
At Ventx, our industrial silencers are able to benefit their users in many ways. They can also do the same for any visitors to the sites and other stakeholders.
All of our models, including the steam vent silencer, are available from our UK base. We design each one to suit the specific needs of the client. As a result, we ensure they get the best level of service and silencing.
If you get into contact with our team, you can ask questions and learn more about us. Then, if you choose to get a product, we can design and deliver it for you.
