APPLICATIONS
The MAC Muffler is a high performance muffler with high sound attenuation
characteristics covering a very broad band and does not require tuning
of any kind. Due to the cyclonic flow of gases through the inner and outer
lines of the muffler, the MAC Muffler also functions as a spark
arrestor.
SOUND ATTENUATION
The MAC Muffler operates on a patented wave cancelling principle
and contains no baffles or packing to restrict gas flow. Sound waves added
together tend to cancel each other when the troughs of one wave coincide
with the peaks of the other wave. Noise reduction on the order of 22 to
24 dBA can be expected.
SIZE AND WEIGHT REDUCTION
The MAC Muffler is approximately one-third the size of a conventional
reactive silencer, and hence is ideal for applications where space is
minimal. The small size and reduced weight offers great flexibility and
ease of installation on welding machines and other small equipment and
machines. The MAC "Whisper Quiet" muffler can be mounted
under the hood and therefore has little stress on the manifold.
LOW BACK PRESSURE
The unique wave cancelliing principle of the MAC Muffler, and the
absence of resonant chambers and baffles create a relatively unrestricted
path for the gas flow - resulting in minimal back pressure. Low
back pressure saves fuel dollars! Less than 10 ins. water gauge
(0.75 ins. Mercury). These special features often permit a small MAC
Muffler to replace a conventional large reactive muffler.
LONG LIFE
The spinning action of gases in the patented Mac and Mark Mufflers keeps
moisture and contaminates from being trapped inside the muffler. This
extends the life of the muffler by many years. Long
life saves replacement dollars! |
