Efective DPF diagnostics is fundamental to providing a right-first-time solution. By assessing the mileage and information gathered by diagnostics it should be possible to determine whether a DPF is blocked with soot, for which a forced regeneration could be suŒcient, or ash, in which case the DPF requires removal and cleaning. Whilst driving style and, in particular, urban usage is the biggest cause of filter blockage, it’s also vital through detailed diagnosis to eliminate other causal issues such as sensor failure or EGR problems. THE LAST RESORT The blocking of DPF’s are a source of continued problems for a high […]

DPF – TREAT THE PROBLEM, NOT THE SYMPTOMS Effective DPF diagnostics is fundamental to providing a right-first-time solution. By assessing the mileage and information gathered by diagnostics, it should be possible to determine whether a DPF is blocked with soot, for which a forced regeneration could be sufficient, or ash, in which case the DPF requires removal and cleaning. Whilst driving style and, in particular. urban usage is the biggest cause of filter blockage, it’s also vital through detailed diagnosis to eliminate other causal issues, i.e. sensor failure or EGR problems. REPLACING A DPF SHOULD BE A LAST RESORT The […]

Different Types of DPF

Catalysed Diesel Particulate Filters Traditional Diesel Particulate Filter systems consist of a filter material positioned in the exhaust designed to collect solid and liquid particulate matter emissions while allowing the exhaust gases to pass through the ceramic walls. Catalyzed Diesel Particulate Filters (CDPF) are designed not only to achieve collection efficiencies of 90% or greater in terms of mass (over 95% when expressed as number of ultra-fine particles), but also to burn off the collected particulate matter into carbon dioxide and water. The incorporation of catalytic coating in CDPFs lowers the temperature at which particulate matter burns. To achieve this […]

How it Operates DPF?

Jay Quantum — Thu, 31 Aug 2017 07:15:24 +0000

Diesel Particulate Filter and how it operates? Diesel emissions are 90% lower since the 1980s; however exhaust regulations based on statistical studies dealing with the health impact of exhaust emissions continue to demand even lower gaseous and particulate diesel emissions. Particulate emissions are responsible for the characteristic black exhaust fumes emitted from the diesel engine. They are a complex mixture of solid and liquid components with the majority of particulates being carbon micro spheres on which hydrocarbons from the engines fuel and lubricant condense. In order to comply with the strict European Stage IV emission standard, which now requires a further 50% reduction in particulate […]

DPF Regeneration

Jay Quantum — Wed, 30 Aug 2017 07:46:59 +0000

Question: Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF). What is it? What are the common problems associated with DPF? The main purpose of DPF is to absorb particulate emissions created during the start-up phase of an engine from cold. These absorbed particulates are later superheated and burned off during the regeneration cycle of the DPF. There are two main types of DPF cycles: Passive Regeneration Passive regeneration takes place automatically when a diesel car is running at high speed resulting into high exhaust temperature. Lot of cars don’t get this type of use though so manufacturers have to design-in ‘active’ regeneration where the […]
