Figure 17: Super silent exhaust system for genverter installed below waterline
If the generating set and the exhaust system have been
installed correctly, neighbouring boats will not be disturbed by
generating set noise. With the "super silent" exhaust system,
generating sets are almost inaudible. For optimal noise
reduction, the sea water outlet from the exhaust/water
separator (centre outlet on the unit, see Figure 17) should be
installed below the water level to eliminate noisy splashing of
the effluent sea water.
The through-hull outlet for the exhaust fumes should not direct
the fumes directly toward the water surface as this will cause
excessive noise (see Figure 18).
Do not direct the outlet directly toward the water
surface.
