Marine
Universal provides a broad range of standard and custom designed product for marine applications. Why not let the inlet air and exhaust system specialists handle your needs? At Universal, we are more than Silencers! And our Spark Arrestors are DNV compliant.
The marine market is large and diverse, as it encompasses all types of crafts from small powerboats and yachts to large tankers and Navy combat vessels. The common thread within the maritime market is that each vessel has a means of propulsion, more than likely, structured around a diesel engine, gas or steam turbine (boiler).
Requirements for Marine Silencing
Marine propulsion systems require filtration, emissions treatment and silencing. The combustion process for a diesel engine, gas turbine or boiler requires high-quality inlet air to ensure the highest power output and to keep maintenance to a minimum.
The Universal Noise Control Solution
Universal designs and manufactures the solution for maritime applications, which includes in-line and barrier filtration units, emission catalysts and combination filter-silencers. Additionally, marine exhaust systems need a high degree of silencing, particularly on smaller vessels where crew quarters are close in proximity to the engine room. Universal supplies a wide variety of noise control solutions, including:
- standard and custom-designed spark arresting silencers
- low-pressure drop silencers
- emission-reducing silencers
Shock-tested and special material engine silencers are available for marine applications.
