Norgren T20C3800 Exhaust Flow Regulator/Silencer - G3/8A
Part Number: T20C3800
Quick Summary
Norgren T20C3800 Exhaust Flow Regulator/Silencer is a compact, integrated device that regulates exhaust flow and silences air release in compressed air systems. Many engineers struggle with noisy, space-hungry regulators that complicate panel layouts and maintenance schedules. This model addresses those challenges with a compact PA body, a captive regulating needle that won’t eject when unscrewed, and reduced overall dimensions for tight installations. Certifications and regional approvals vary; consult the datasheet or distributor for CE, SIL, or IP-related details. By combining reliable flow control with quiet operation, it offers tangible business value in uptime, energy efficiency, and streamlined installation for automation lines and pneumatic tooling.

FAQs
Yes. The T20C3800 uses a G3/8 port size and G3/8 threaded connection, matching common pneumatic manifolds and commonplace G-thread fittings. Its compact PA body simplifies mounting in tight panels, and it integrates with existing Norgren T20 accessories to reduce spare-part variety.
Key specs include a flow of 0.42 dm3/sec, operating pressure range from 1 to 10 bar, and an operating temperature range of -20 to 80 °C. This combination supports consistent exhaust regulation in typical automation circuits while staying functional across varying ambient conditions.
Best suited for compact exhaust regulation in panel-mounted assemblies, small pneumatic tooling, and line integration points where noise suppression and space savings are critical. Its integrated silencer and regulator reduce component count and simplify installation in automated packaging and assembly stations.
The provided data does not list formal certifications for this exact model. When regulatory compliance is required, verify CE, SIL, or IP ratings in the official datasheet or through your distributor, as regional requirements vary and may apply to different market variants.
Expect ROI from reduced cabinet space, lower installation and maintenance time due to the captive needle design, and quieter operation reducing operator fatigue and environment noise. The compact form factor also simplifies spare-parts logistics by aligning with existing T20 family parts.
