PRODUCT DESCRIPTION UNDERWATER EXHAUST The Vernatone™ exhaust muffler is the original FRP water-cooled marine muffler. This style has been used by boat builders and boaters world wide for over 50 years. The Vernatone™ family of inline mufflers includes eight basic products with hundreds of variations in length, width, height, inlets and outlets. Builders and boaters requested these variations for specific engine or location requirements in a particular vessel. These mufflers also vary in size which influences the acoustical performance. The Vernalift™ muffler was originally designed for...

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The routing of exhaust gas and cooling water in some complex vessels brought about the development of new types of muffler products. Centek has met these needs with its gas/water separation mufflers. Separation systems are very effective where engines are located amidships or well forward in the hull and extremely effective in reducing exhaust noise. The Gen-Sep™ is used in conjunction with a Vernalift™ muffler on generator sets. The water drain from the Gen-Sep™ can be located below the water line to eliminate irritating water splash during overnight moorings. The...
