2" NPT Air Compressor Intake Silencer & Filter Kit

Short Product Description

Reduce the intake noise from your reciprocating air compressor with this 2" NPT Air Compressor Intake Silencer & Filter Kit. Designed to replace the standard factory intake filter or silencer, this kit helps quiet the sharp intake pulses produced by reciprocating compressor pumps while maintaining proper intake filtration.

Full Product Description

Tired of listening to a noisy reciprocating air compressor? If building a dedicated compressor room or sound enclosure isn't practical, this 2" NPT Intake Silencer & Filter Kit offers a simple way to reduce compressor noise.

A significant portion of the sound produced by many reciprocating compressors comes from the intake side of the pump. This silencer system replaces the standard intake filter or factory silencer with a larger sound-reducing assembly designed to help dampen those intake pulses.

The kit includes both the intake silencer and silencer/filter assembly, giving you sound reduction while continuing to filter incoming air before it enters the compressor pump.

This system will not make your compressor completely silent. Actual sound reduction varies depending on the compressor pump, operating speed, installation, and existing intake system. However, it can make a noticeable difference and help bring compressor noise down to a much more tolerable level.

Designed for reciprocating compressor pumps equipped with a 2" NPT intake connection.

Technical Specifications

Why Choose This Product?

Reciprocating compressors can be extremely loud, particularly when installed inside a shop or other occupied workspace. Instead of constructing an expensive sound enclosure, this intake silencer kit attacks one of the major sources of piston compressor noise directly at the pump intake.

It is a simple, mechanical solution that can provide a noticeable improvement without changing the compressor itself.

Please note: This product reduces compressor intake noise but does not make the compressor completely silent. Results will vary from one compressor pump to another.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this make my air compressor completely silent?

No. The silencer is designed to reduce the intake noise produced by a reciprocating compressor. The compressor will still produce mechanical and motor noise.

How much quieter will my compressor be?

Noise reduction varies depending on the compressor pump, RPM, existing intake system, and installation. Most of the improvement will be in reducing the sharp intake sound produced by the compressor.

What size connection does this silencer use?

This model is designed for a 2" NPT compressor intake connection.

Does this replace my existing intake filter?

Yes. The assembly is designed to replace the existing factory intake filter or intake silencer on compatible compressor pumps.

Does the kit still filter the intake air?

Yes. The system includes a silencer/filter assembly so incoming air continues to be filtered before entering the compressor pump.

What is included with the kit?

The kit includes one intake silencer and one silencer/filter assembly.

Can this be used on any brand of compressor?

It can be used with many reciprocating compressor pumps that have a compatible 2" NPT intake connection and sufficient clearance for installation.

Is the compressor shown in the photos included?

No. Any compressor shown in the product photos, including a Champion compressor or pump, is for illustration purposes only and is not included.
