Burgess-Manning Absorptive Silencer

Burgess-Manning absorptive silencers are used for industrial noise control in atmospheric air intake and pressure discharge applications. These silencers are designed for applications involving rotary lobe, screw, and helical screw type blowers, as well as suction and discharge service for centrifugal and screw compressors and blowers.

Absorptive silencer designs are commonly applied where medium- to high-frequency noise reduction is required with low pressure drop. The design uses an annular gas flow passage lined with perforated tubes and backed by multiple layers of sound-absorbing materials.
