About the Airtac PALM Mini Plastic Silencer PALM01D
A silencer screwed onto the exhaust port of a valve breaks up the sharp pressure pulse that otherwise leaves the port as a crack of escaping air. The PALM01D does this with a polyethylene-fibre filter element held in a POM top cover and body, and it measures the result honestly: 25 dB of noise reduction at 0.5 MPa, the same figure as the full-size PAL because the element principle is identical. This is the quietest class of silencer in the AirTAC range.
The 01 in the code means a 1/8in PT male thread, and the D suffix is the visual difference: both the top cover and the body are moulded in black instead of the natural POM colour. PALM is the shortened PAL body for valves mounted close together on a manifold, where a full-length silencer would foul its neighbour. One point worth knowing before you shop: this series starts at 1/8in. There is no M5 PALM, so the 01D is the smallest version AirTAC makes.

Choosing a Silencer
- check Sintered-brass types (BSL / BSLM / BESL) give 13 dB and take rough treatment.
- check Resin types (PAL / PALM / PPA) give 25 dB and weigh far less.
- check PPA plugs straight into a tube instead of a thread, and is copper-free for sensitive processes.
- check BESL adds an adjustable throttle, so it silences AND sets exhaust speed in one part.
- check An undersized or clogged silencer shows up as a slow return stroke - size it to the valve's exhaust port.
Where the Airtac PALM Mini Plastic Silencer PALM01D Is Used
Compact valve manifold banks
On tightly packed valve islands the short PALM body stops neighbouring silencers from touching. The black D colour also blends into darkened control cabinets behind machine guarding.
Bench-top laboratory apparatus
A 25 dB reduction at 0.5 MPa keeps small pneumatic test rigs quiet enough for spoken conversation at the bench, and the all-resin build cannot mark delicate bench surfaces if knocked.
Meeting a workplace noise limit
Where an 85 dB exposure limit forces a noise survey on a packaging cell, fitting 25 dB resin silencers on every exhaust port is one of the cheapest lines on the remediation list.
Is the Airtac PALM Mini Plastic Silencer PALM01D the Right Part?
Pick resin over sintered brass when the exhaust noise figure is what your risk assessment cares about: 25 dB here against 13 dB for the metal BSLM. Resin is the right call where the silencer will not be struck by trolleys or parts and where ambient heat stays within -20 to +70 C. The black D finish suits visible panel work where the pale natural colour would look mismatched. The only step up from this SKU is PALM02D in 1/4in; there is no size below 1/8in and no 3/8in or 1/2in in the series at all. If your valve exhaust port is bigger than 1/4in, you need the full-size PAL series instead. Whatever you do, match the silencer to the valve exhaust port size rather than deliberately fitting a smaller one - an undersized silencer throttles the exhaust and drags out the cylinder return stroke.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Tube outside diameter matches exactly
- ✓ Thread size and standard match the port
- ✓ Working pressure within 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2)
- ✓ Temperature within -20 to +70 °C
- ✓ Noise target: 13 dB metal or 25 dB resin
Airtac PALM Mini Plastic Silencer PALM01D FAQ
The PALM01D is a mini plastic silencer with a 1/8in PT male thread and a black POM top cover and body with a polyethylene-fibre filter. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. Noise reduction is 25 dB at 0.5 MPa.
No. The PALM series is made only in 1/8in (PALM01) and 1/4in (PALM02) PT threads. For an M5 plastic silencer you would need to move to a different approach, and for 3/8in or 1/2in the full-size PAL series covers those threads with the same 25 dB element.
