Festo U-1/4 Pneumatic Muffler G1/4 3300L/min 10bar 76dB(A) 2316

Overview
The Festo U-1/4 (part number 2316) is a compact, high-performance pneumatic muffler from the U series, designed for effective noise reduction at the exhaust ports of pneumatic components. This threaded silencer directly screws onto G1/4 ports, providing a simple yet efficient solution for reducing sound levels in industrial environments.

Engineered for universal application, the U-1/4 muffler features a rugged polymer construction (POM housing and PE cushioning insert), offering excellent corrosion resistance (CRC 1) and durability. It operates reliably over a broad temperature range of -10 °C to +70 °C and a pressure range of 0 to 10 bar, making it suitable for a wide variety of industrial conditions.

With an impressive flow rate of 3300 l/min to atmosphere, this muffler minimizes back pressure while reducing noise levels to just 76 dB(A), effectively balancing performance and workplace comfort. Weighing only 7.7 g, it is one of the lightest and most compact solutions in its class, allowing for easy installation in tight spaces.
