Pneumatic mufflers are used for valves, cylinders and pneumatic tools and systems to reduce the noise. In Europe, pneumatic mufflers are also called pneumatic silencers. In the USA, people also called it pneumatic breathers. They are used to reduce the exhaust noise, also called exhaust mufflers, vent mufflers. As OSHA standard 1910.95, a worker must not be exposed to sound levels above 90 dBA or any eight hours shift of a 40 hours work per week.
Based on silencer material, below are different ranges.
