Q1: How does KM-S differ from standard brass mufflers?
A: KM-S is a short form factor—shorter and lighter for space-constrained installs—while retaining sintered-brass silencing and low back pressure.
Q2: Does it require a separate filter element?
A: No. The sintered-brass body itself is the filtering and silencing medium and can be cleaned for reuse.
Q3: What is the recommended cleaning method?
A: Soak in a mild cleaner or use ultrasonic cleaning, rinse with water, then blow from inside out and fully dry before reassembly. Avoid strong acids/alkalis and high-temperature baking.
Q4: Will it slow my actuators or valves?
A: It's engineered for low back pressure and typically has minimal impact. For very high flows or short cycle times, measure back pressure on the machine and size accordingly.
Q5: Is it suitable for vacuum or cleanliness-critical systems?
A: Generally yes for exhaust silencing. For strict cleanliness or vacuum applications, evaluate particle control and back-blow needs and shorten cleaning intervals as needed.
Q6: When should I choose KM-S over resin mufflers?
A: Choose KM-S for space-limited, higher-temperature/pressure, or oil-mist conditions. Use resin types where lightweight and cost are priorities in standard environments.
Q7: How do I set cleaning/replacement intervals?
A: Start at 2–4 weeks based on dust/oil-mist exposure, monitor noise and pressure drop, then fine-tune to your condition.
Q8: Any installation cautions?
A: Keep the porous face exposed to open air; avoid wall-flush mounting or wraps. Do not smear sealant over the porous surface to prevent clogging.
Q9: What if noise returns or back pressure rises over time?
A: Clean or replace the unit, check for sludge/dust clogging or blocked discharge paths, and ensure no sealant has migrated into the pores.
Q10: Can it be a drop-in replacement for my current muffler?
A: Usually yes. Verify thread spec, space envelope, flow capacity, and environment. Pilot before full-scale deployment.
