3/4" NPT Air Compressor Intake Silencer & Filter Kit

Short Product Description

Tired of the excessive noise from your reciprocating air compressor? The 3/4" NPT Air Compressor Intake Silencer & Filter Kit provides a simple way to help significantly reduce compressor intake noise without building a dedicated compressor room or sound enclosure.

This kit replaces the compressor pump's existing intake filter or factory silencer and includes (1) street elbow, (1) coupling, (1) silencer, and (1) silencer/filter assembly.

The kit will not make your compressor completely silent, but it can greatly reduce the sharp intake noise produced by many reciprocating compressor pumps and make the surrounding work area much more tolerable.

Full Product Description

Reciprocating air compressors can produce a surprisingly high amount of noise from the intake side of the compressor pump. That sharp, repetitive intake sound can become especially noticeable when the compressor is installed inside a garage, shop, maintenance area, or other occupied workspace.

The 3/4" NPT Air Compressor Intake Silencer & Filter Kit offers a straightforward solution. Instead of building a compressor closet or relocating the compressor, this kit replaces the existing intake filter or factory silencer with a larger sound-reducing intake assembly.

The included silencer helps dampen the intake pulses created by the reciprocating compressor pump, while the silencer/filter assembly continues to filter incoming air before it enters the pump.

The kit includes a street elbow and coupling to help position and connect the silencer assembly during installation.

Actual noise reduction will vary depending on the compressor pump, operating speed, existing intake configuration, and installation. This system will not eliminate all compressor noise, but it can provide a noticeable reduction in intake sound and make the compressor much easier to live with.

Designed for compatible reciprocating air compressor pumps with a 3/4" NPT intake connection.

Technical Specifications

Why Choose This Product?

A significant portion of the distinctive sound produced by many reciprocating compressors comes directly from the compressor intake. This silencer kit targets that noise at its source.

For compressors installed inside a shop, garage, or maintenance area, the kit provides a simple way to reduce intake noise without enclosing or relocating the entire compressor.

The included silencer/filter maintains intake filtration while helping quiet the compressor, while the street elbow and coupling provide additional flexibility for installation.

Please note: Noise reduction varies from compressor to compressor. This product will not make an air compressor completely silent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this make my air compressor completely silent?

No. This kit is designed to reduce the intake noise produced by a reciprocating air compressor. Mechanical noise from the pump, motor, belts, and other components will still be present.

How much quieter will my compressor be?

Noise reduction varies depending on the compressor pump, RPM, existing intake filter, and installation. The kit is designed to significantly reduce the sharp intake sound produced by many reciprocating compressors.

What size connection does this kit use?

This model is designed for compressor pumps with a 3/4" NPT intake connection.

What is included with the kit?

The kit includes:

• (1) Street elbow
• (1) Coupling
• (1) Silencer
• (1) Silencer/filter assembly

Does this replace my existing compressor intake filter?

Yes. The kit is designed to replace the existing intake filter or factory intake silencer on a compatible compressor pump.

Does the silencer still filter incoming air?

Yes. The supplied silencer/filter provides intake filtration while also helping reduce compressor noise.

Can this be used on different brands of air compressors?

Yes. It can be used with compatible reciprocating compressor pumps that have a 3/4" NPT intake connection and sufficient room for installation.

Does the silencer require electricity?

No. The intake silencer is completely mechanical and requires no electrical connection.

Should I verify my compressor before ordering?

Yes. Verify that your compressor pump has a 3/4" NPT intake connection and adequate clearance for the silencer assembly before ordering.
