Festo Silencers Aluminium Pneumatic Silencer 10 bar Threaded G

Festo Silencers Series Pneumatic Silencer, 1/4 inches Connection size, Aluminium - U-1/4-B, Numeric Part Number: 6842

This pneumatic silencer reduces exhaust noise from compressed Air systems and is intended for inline threaded installations in industrial automation environments. It connects directly to pneumatic exhaust ports and is constructed from aluminium to suit routine use where moderate temperature and pressure conditions are present.

Features & Benefits

• Male G-thread fits standard 1/4 inch G ports for secure connections
  Rated to operate up to 10 bar enabling use on typical pneumatic lines
  Withstands temperatures from -10°C to 70°C for varied environments
  Provides noise attenuation of 80 dB to minimise acoustic impact
  RoHS-compliant construction supporting restricted-substance requirements

**Applications**

• Suitable for pneumatic control cabinets in factory automation
  Ideal for exhaust ports on pneumatic valves in assembly lines
  Used with compressed Air actuators to reduce workplace noise
  Can be used for machine tool exhausts where space is limited

What material is used to balance durability and weight?

The body is MADE from aluminium which offers a lightweight solution while resisting corrosion in standard industrial settings.

How Compact is it for installations with restricted space?

The overall length is 55.6 mm, allowing fitting in confined manifolds and tight panel layouts.

Which thread specification ensures compatibility with common fittings?

It uses a male G-thread sized for 1/4 inch G to match widely used pneumatic ports.

Are there any environmental limits for its operation?

It functions reliably between -10°C and 70°C and is intended for systems not exceeding 10 bar operational pressure.
