	Cummins Filtration Extends Exhaust Standard Line Product Offering for Off-Highway Applications
	12 MAR 08 -- Cummins Filtration (NYSE:CMI) , the leader in filtration, exhaust, coolant and chemical technology for all engine-powered systems, has extended its series of Fleetguard standard off-highway exhaust products to include engines from 8 to 50 horsepower (6 to 37 kW). This extended product offering provides complete system solutions with three muffler body diameters and a broad range of accessories like screen-type spark arresters, packed resonators, clamps and more. Typical applications for these standard exhaust products are portable generators, compressors, industrial, small commercial vehicles and construction equipment. The new product offering complements the currently available larger off-highway standard muffler series which covers exhaust flows up to 2750 CFM (78 M 3 /min) and provides Industrial Grade (12-18 dBA sound reduction) silencing ratings. “We are pleased to expand our exhaust standard line off-highway product coverage. This increased product line now provides Cummins Filtration the most comprehensive off-highway exhaust standard line product offering and is an excellent platform for global growth.” said Kevin Stokstad, Director of Global Exhaust Marketing and CSE for Cummins Filtration. “ The mufflers in this standard line offer a low-cost, high-performance, alternative to custom designed OEM mufflers to maximize value to the customer. Plus, we are using our global manufacturing footprint to reduce costs and provide worldwide availability.” The mufflers are available in two options: (1) Residential Grade for 18–25 dBA sound reduction; and (2) Critical Grade for 25–35 dBA sound reduction silencing ratings. The Critical Grade mufflers contain an integral packed resonator for improved sound reduction and enhanced sound quality. In addition, many inlet-outlet configurations are available, making the mufflers easy to adapt to most applications.
