3-Way Catalytic Converters / Catalytic Mufflers
Summary:
Catalytic Exhaust Products Ltd. is a custom manufacturer of high performance 3-way catalytic converters for small and large engine applications. The 3-way catalytic converters are designed to operate on natural gas, propane and gasoline fueled spark ignition engines and will provide high-performance reductions in all major exhaust gas emissions. Carbon Monoxide (CO) can be reduced by up to 95%+, Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) and Hydrocarbons (HC) by up to 90%+. Our 3-way catalytic converters are designed for ease of installation and reliable operation. The three-way catalytic converters are available in three basic configurations: P-Model (Plain Fully Welded), F-Model (Clamped Style) or a full replacement Purifier Muffler. The three-way catalytic converter is great at reducing deadly indoor and outdoor emissions. Common applications for the three-way catalytic converter system are lawn mower, commercial/garden, pressure washer, construction/industrial, generator, water pump, agricultural and forestry engine applications. Our sales, engineering, and manufacturing teams have the experience and expertise in a range of industries, ensuring your three-way catalytic converter will meet or exceed your expectations.
The major catalytic oxidation reactions which occur are:
FOR OXIDES OF NITROGEN (NOx):
NOx + CO → N2 + CO2
NOx + H2→ H2O + N2
FOR CARBON MONOXIDE (CO):
CO + O2→ CO2
FOR HYDROCARBONS (HC):
H2 + O2→ H2O
HC + O2→ CO2 + H2O
Features:
- HIGH EFFICIENCY CATALYTIC COATING
Our Three-Way Catalytic Converters feature a high quality Platinum-Rhodium coating which is very carefully distributed upon a uniform high porosity washcoat. The Platinum-Rhodium precious metal coating and washcoat are evenly dispersed onto a metallic alloy core. The net results are high efficiency non-selective catalytic reactions which lead to very low exhaust emissions. Pollutant conversion efficiencies in excess of 98% can be expected when used in conjunction with recommended air/fuel ratio controllers. - SUPERIOR THERMAL AND PHYSICAL STRENGTH
Our Three-Way Catalytic Converters are constructed of high temperature tolerant, corrosion resistant stainless steel alloys. Thick stainless steel alloy retainers are used to provide support and stability for the inlet and outlet faces of the metallic core. The effects of high thermal shock and severe vibration are minimized. The larger model catalytic converters (Models 12 SXT and higher) feature inlet flow diverters for even exhaust flow distribution and improved operating efficiency. - LOW EXHAUST GAS RESTRICTION
Our Three-Way Catalytic Converters feature high strength, ultra-thin metallic core walls which impose a minimal exhaust gas restriction during operation. Even under high load/speed conditions the average engine operating efficiency is barely affected. Under normal circumstances the exhaust gas backpressure restriction will be in the order of 6.0” to 9.0” water gauge (depending on exhaust gas temperature). - LOW MAINTENANCE AND EASY INSTALLATION
Our Three-Way Catalytic Converters are designed for ease of installation and maintenance with minimal equipment downtime. A large variety of inlet/outlet cone termination configurations (NPT Male/Female pipe, ANSI Flanges, Tube O.D., etc.) are available.
