ABSTRACT:
An acoustic filter is provided with a single flow chamber for exposure of a flexible rubber layer to liquid undergoing flow through the flow chamber with noise producing acoustic energy therein. The flexible rubber layer is supported on a cylindrical drum with slanted holes therein through which the exposure to the liquid in the flow chamber is effected. An axially sectioned drum with dimensionally different diameters, radial thicknesses and slanted holes therein is positioned over the rubber layer within an outer casing to establish a plurality of gas-filled cavities of different axial lengths and separated from each other along the axial length of the liquid flow chamber which is connected at its opposite axial ends by pipe sections to a piping system from which the liquid within the flow chamber is derived.
