Zusammenfassung:An exhaust processor ( 12 ) comprises an isolated interior volume ( 16 ) that is defined in a housing ( 18 ) of the exhaust processor ( 12 ) so as to be isolated from exhaust gas in the housing ( 18 ). A motion converter ( 20 ) is positioned in the isolated interior volume ( 16 ) and is configured to convert in the isolated interior volume ( 16 ) linear movement of a linear valve actuator ( 22 ) into rotation of an exhaust valve ( 17 ). A cushioning pad ( 120, 122, 320, 420 ) can be used in a variety of exhaust processors ( 12, 212 ) to facilitate positioning of the exhaust valve ( 17 ). An associated method is disclosed.
