Abstract
A dual chamber discharge muffler for a compressor. The dual chambers of the discharge muffler are separated by a check valve that closes upon shutdown of the compressor, which in turn limits the amount of exhaust gases in the discharge muffler that are able to return to the compressor. The dual chambers are formed by dividing a muffler housing with a dividing plate. The dividing plate may also be adapted to receive a fastener that through mounts the muffler to the compressor.
