Silencer for Siemens Venturi Air Valves
Description
The Venturi Air Valve Silencers are designed to be a
practical solution for controlling sound when coupled
with Siemens Venturi Air Valves.
Packless silencers trap sound within tuned resonator
chambers that lie between a perforated metal liner
and a solid metal casing.
Absorptive silencers use a fiberglass acoustic media
encapsulated by a thin Tedlar® film liner. This film
liner protects the acoustic media from moisture and
airborne contaminants that may be present in duct
systems.
Silencers are available in following sizes:
14” Packless Silencer
18” Absorptive Silencer
36” Packless or Absorptive Silencer
Each of these silencers is available in a form
compatible with single, dual, and triple Siemens
Venturi Air Valves.
Features
Polymer Film (Tedlar®) Encapsulated Fiberglass

General room ventilation
Specifications
Construction
Siemens packless silencers consist of a solid metal
casing and perforated resonating metal liner.
Siemens absorptive silencers consist of acoustic
fiberglass media encapsulated in a polymer (Tedlar®)
film liner, with acoustic standoff separating the media
from the perforated internal liner and solid metal
casing.
Material
Galvanized Steel
304 Stainless Steel
316 Stainless Steel
Liner (Absorptive Silencers Only)
A thin Tedlar® film is wrapped around the fiberglass
media to provide a barrier against elements that may
be found in the air stream. To ensure that acoustic
performance is maintained, a ½” acoustic stand-off is
placed between the perforated metal and the film
liner.
