Product information

The First Generation redefines the way exhaust systems are made. Instead of a fixed welded, unchangeable structure; the First Generation features a modular construction, making the inner core of the muffler interchangeable without the need for special tools or facility, by making the tail pipe a convenient handle for the removal and insertion. Not only does this facilitate maintenance, but creates the opportunity for bringing supplementary emission control technology to vehicles made before such technology was available. After an initial installation of the shell assembly by the OEM or an after-market provider, there is then created an after-market opportunity for ongoing improvements in exhaust treatment enhancements on an ongoing basis as long as the vehicle remains on the road.

The Second Generation extended the capabilities of the First. While the First generation inner core module, or Cartridge, did provide for such things as electrostatic precipitation, and ionization with adsorbent material, it was; however, restricted to mounting at the end of the exhaust system, namely the tailpipe. The Second Generation provided for mounting the system anywhere along the exhaust system not at just the end. It also separated the electronic and those items that were not as likely to need replacing every-time along with the cartridge, which as a result would now benefit from reduced costs.

The Third Generation benefited from the tests and experiments done on previous versions. Most important was the recognition that vehicle operation is not just one mode, but that there are long periods of high power cruising on the freeway, and long periods of low power idle and stop and go rush hour type operation. Further was the issue of Cartridge replacement, which while it did not require tools, did require some disassembly. With the addition of a simple valve, operation in high or low power mode could be optimized. The Cartridge was re-designed with quick disconnect gas and auxiliary connectors along just one side permitting a simple snap and click latching for installation and removal from the bottom, any where along the exhaust chain, where the device may be installed. Control devices which would require less frequent attention, were moved out into the support frame reducing environmental stresses and associated costs and manufacturing difficulties. Applications to larger vehicles such as trucks and diesels could now be considered.

The Fourth Generation takes the advances of the Third even further. Recognizing that the unit can exist either as a single assembly or it may be distributed along the exhaust chain amplifies its versatility; extending the applications to include most vehicles and beyond. The cartridge is conveniently released with a latch and installed with a snap, requiring minimum kill and facility. With control over exhaust flow, the moisture content of the exhaust gasses can now be used in an unprecedented way to sequester NOx and particulate matter using the ionization provided for by the system. Removal of accumulated noxious matter and exhausted neutralizing agents has never been easier.
