Wilkerson XMC-0B-000 muffler is used to reduce the loud noise and handle oil-mist contamination produced by combustion engines. It is useful in the construction, automobile and manufacturing industries.
Working Mechanism:
- The XMC unit operates to coalesce oil mists during its use.
- These oil mists accumulate in an integrated drainage cup located at the element's bottom.
- The accumulation volume depends on the contamination entering the unit.
- Users can manage this accumulation periodically by removing the rubber drain plug cap and emptying it into a container.
- Alternatively, a continuous drainage system can be set up by attaching plastic tubing to the unit's drain plug.
Features:
- Wilkerson XMC-0B-000 muffler has a liquid sump with a manual drain to remove mist.
- It has an operating temperature range of 36 to 122 degrees F.
- This muffler has nylon threaded end caps to avoid corrosion.
- It has a borosilicate cloth as a primary filter and a PVC fibre as a secondary filter to cleanse the inlet air.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to install this Wilkerson XMC-0B-000 muffler?
A.
- Install Wilkerson's XMC exhaust silencer / mist eliminator in the exhaust ports of pneumatic valves, air motors or other air-operated devices to reduce work area noise and eliminate oil mist from exhaust air.
- Consider using collective piping or a manifold if multiple air devices are in use for easy maintenance and control of oil mist collection and disposal.
- If manual draining is preferred, attach plastic tubing with an inside diameter of 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) from the drain of the XMC unit to a suitable collecting container.
- When plastic tubing is not used, periodically remove the rubber drain plug cap and manually drain the unit into an appropriate disposable container.
Q. What is the difference between a muffler and a resonator?
A. Mufflers and resonators both reduce exhaust noise but in different ways. Mufflers use chambers and materials to dampen sound, while resonators use sound waves to cancel out specific frequencies.
