The Burgess Aarding in-line diffuser/sparger assembly is a drilled
SILENCERS VENT VIRTUALLY pipe component and is designed to reduce the noise typically
Commissioning Silencers
Burgess-Aarding commissioning silencers are designed for tem-
porary usage to vent down high velocity steam or air and to collect
and remove possible debris (tools, weld slag, etc., ) present during
new pipeline construction that could cause damage to downstream
equipment once the pipeline is commissioned and the equipement
(turbine, fans, compressors, etc.,) is installed. Our standard model
is designed to vent over half a million kg/hr (1.1 million lbs/hr) of
steam and provides 35-40 decibels of noise reduction. Additional
noise reduction in total noise is achievable by way of an acoustical
splitter package installed at the outlet of the silencer. This design
with splitter package can provide for over 50 decibles of noise
reduction. The silencer is skidded for shipment and installation on
a flat ground.
