Fig. 7.7.0-1: Installation Scheme exhaust / water separator
7.8 Installation exhaust water separator
If the exhaust water separator was sufficiently highly installed, a goose neck is no longer necessary. The exhaust/
water separator fulfils the same function. If the „Super silent“ exhaust system were installed correctly, the generator
will not disturb your boat neighbour. The exhaust noise should be nearly inaudible. The best result is reached, if the
hose line, which derive the cooling water, is relocate on a short way „falling“ directly to the outlet and this outlet is
under the waterline.
If the through-hull exhaust outlet has to be mounted far from the generator, an exhaust-water separator must defi-
nitely be installed. The raw water from the separator must then run along the shortest possible path in the through-
hull outlet. For such long exhaust routes, the exhaust hose diameter should also be increased, f.e. from NW40mm to
NW50mm in order to reduce the back-pressure. The exhaust may have a length of over 10 m (32 ft.) if the exhaust
hose diameter is increased. An additional outlet exhaust muffler close to the hull outlet will help further to reduce
noise emissions.
The generator will not disturb your boat neighbours, if the „Super silent exhaust system has been correctly installed.
The exhaust noise should be almost inaudible.
