The SS600 Diffuser is installed on the outlet side
of steam traps, valves or other equipment that
discharges high velocity steam, condensate or
air to the atmosphere. The baffle is constructed
of a fine stainless steel wire mesh, similar to steel wool.
This porous mesh breaks down the high velocity discharge which dampens the sound significantly.
SS600 SERIES
NOISE DIFFUSER
Pressures To 600 PSIG (41.3 barg)
Temperatures to 750°F (400°C)
Diffuses Blast Discharge — Diffuses the high velocity
discharge from steam traps.
Reduces Noise — Dampens the level of noise
associated with steam trap cycles.
Corrosion Resistant — All stainless steel construction
provides excellent protection from corrosion.
Causes No Back Pressure — Porous stainless steel
baffle allows condensate discharge without back
pressure.
Compressed Air Capabilities — Diffuser works as a
muffler for compressed air exhaust.
Repairable in-line — Snap ring design allows for easy
element replacement.
