In above case of filled up silencer, will the engine be suffocated in its own exhaust because of too high backpressure?
Gradual plugging of the exhaust is a problem for any component downstream of the engine. This is true for silencer/spark arresters as well as the MES EcoSilencer System. The fail-safe level control will guard against this problem, and the exhaust backpressure is continuously monitored by the unit’s control system. Our experience with similar systems has shown that the unit is very effective at self-cleaning, requiring less maintenance than a hot exhaust.
