Centek Industries To Feature Gen-Kleen™
Wet Exhaust Filtration System at METS 2009
Eco-friendly system eliminates diesel generator pollutants
Stand 11.508, Amsterdam RAI, November 17-19THOMASVILLE, GEORGIA (USA) - Centek Industries, the leading manufacturer of fiberglass wet marine exhaust mufflers and systems, will feature its unique Gen-Kleen™ Wet Exhaust Filtration System at METS (Marine Equipment Trade Show) 2009, November 17-19 in Amsterdam (stand 11.508 at the RAI).
Gen-Kleen eliminates the sheen that appears in the water around a boat when the diesel generator is running on board. The patented system binds hydrocarbons to a filter system and discharges clean water. “Gen-Kleen helps boat owners cruising the Mediterrean and other European waters avoid fines and eviction notices for violations of strict discharge regulations,” said Bill Arwood, Centek Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
Centek has installed Gen-Kleen systems in boats and yachts cruising European waters ranging in size from 75 to over 200 feet (23 to over 60 meters). Gen-Kleen systems are available for generators from 5 kW and above.
A recent enhancement is a compact control panel (pictured right) to better accommodate the limited space in most engine rooms. Also, an integral pressure transmitter in the reservoir is now hard wired to the control panel to improve the reliability and integrity of the system.

2009 a milestone year for world’s leading manufacturer of wet exhaust systemsTHOMASVILLE, GEORGIA (USA) - Centek Industries is observing the sale of its 250,000th water lift muffler since the company’s founding in 1962.

Over the past 47 years, Centek has firmly established its reputation as the world’s leading manufacturer of fiberglass wet marine exhaust mufflers and systems. The only exhaust system company to offer fiberglass components that are Lloyd’s Register Type approved, ABS Type approved, and meet or exceed ABYC-P1 standards, Centek holds numerous patents for fiberglass marine exhaust systems and trademarks on seven industry standard products. To date Centek has produced over 1 million exhaust components for both propulsion and Genset applications and enjoys world wide distribution of its products.
