With a 3\/8 inch male NPT thread and a flow rating of 60 CFM, this muffler handles moderate to high-volume exhaust streams in both industrial and commercial pneumatic systems. The 40-micron sintered bronze element diffuses airflow, reduces exhaust noise, and captures particulates before they enter the surrounding environment. The Cv rating of 1.900 indicates low backpressure restriction, supporting consistent actuator cycle times. Licensed pneumatic technicians, maintenance mechanics, and automation technicians install this muffler as a direct inline exhaust fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MS003A suits pneumatic control panels, solenoid valve banks, directional control valves, and cylinder rod-end exhaust ports where noise reduction and exhaust filtration are required. It is appropriate for both light industrial and heavy industrial environments where maximum exhaust temperature does not exceed 176 degrees F (80 degrees C). The compact 1\/4 inch body diameter and 0.69 inch hex allow installation in tight manifold configurations with a standard open-end wrench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSintered bronze element provides 40-micron particulate filtration on exhaust discharge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60 CFM flow capacity with a Cv of 1.900 minimizes backpressure on actuators\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch male NPT thread fits standard pneumatic valve exhaust ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 176 degrees F (80 degrees C) for use in warm industrial environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1\/4 inch diameter body suits space-constrained manifold or valve body installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.69 inch hex allows installation with a standard open-end or combination wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement exhaust muffler for pneumatic directional control valves and actuator assemblies equipped with 3\/8 inch female NPT exhaust ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by pneumatic technicians or industrial maintenance mechanics. Before installing or removing this muffler, depressurize the pneumatic circuit fully and lock out the compressed air supply per site LOTO procedures. Apply thread sealant tape appropriate for compressed air service and hand-tighten before applying wrench torque to avoid cross-threading the sintered element body. Inspect the element periodically for compacted particulates that can increase backpressure and slow actuator response; replace the muffler if flow restriction is evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMuffler Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Exhaust Muffler\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 CFM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCv Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.900\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicron Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 micron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sintered Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.69 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 176 degrees F (80 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORGREN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MS003A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORGREN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710601330994,"sku":"MS003A","price":19.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/df618ba99a302503caf5880750401724_fca7b114-6ad7-44e9-aedd-170457f67c15.jpg?v=1788468620","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norgren-ms003a-pneumatic-exhaust-muffler-60-cfm-3-8-in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
