Product Description
It screws directly into the exhaust port of a solenoid valve or manifold using its R 1/2 male thread and reduces exhaust noise by around 30 dB(A). With a 90 mm2 effective area and a maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, it handles the airflow of larger valves while keeping machine noise down. Its durable resin construction is suited to automation, packaging and general pneumatic machinery. The SMC AN40-04 is a compact resin-body pneumatic silencer, also called a muffler, from the AN series.
Basic Product Information
- Noise reduction of approximately 30 dB(A)
- R 1/2 male threaded inlet for direct mounting
- Effective area of 90 mm2 with sonic conductance 18 dm3/(s·bar)
- Maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa
- RoHS compliant, typically manufactured in Japan
- Compact resin-body silencer for pneumatic exhaust ports
Technical Specifications
Version & Model Difference
Within the AN compact resin silencer series, models run from AN05-M5 up to AN40-04. The AN40-04 is the largest size, offering a 1/2 R port and the highest effective area (90 mm2). The series also includes high-noise-reduction and metal-case styles where more demanding exhaust ports are involved. Select the port size to match the valve or manifold thread.
