Sport System offers DPF cleaning capability

French firm Sport System has developed a diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaner called Technifap. Suitable for all types and sizes of DPF, the cleaning process starts with an internal inspection by boroscope before the filter is dressed with a biodegradable cleaning solution and installed into the Technifap cabinet. The filter is then flow-tested, prior to being washed clean by high-pressure recirculating water within the cleaning cabinet’s sealed and filtered water system. With the cleaning process

The Technifap DPF cleaner includes certification to back-up the cleaning process

French firm 8766 Sport System has developed a diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaner called Technifap. Suitable for all types and sizes of DPF, the cleaning process starts with an internal inspection by boroscope before the filter is dressed with a biodegradable cleaning solution and installed into the Technifap cabinet.

The filter is then flow-tested, prior to being washed clean by high-pressure recirculating water within the cleaning cabinet’s sealed and filtered water system. With the cleaning process completed, the DPF is again flow-checked and issued with a certificate of cleanliness. Thorough cleaning takes around three to four hours, said the firm.

    Bobcat’s M Series mini excavators have moved to the Tier 4 emissions standard without the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The E42, E45, E50 and E55 mid-size mini excavators use an ultra-low particulate combustion process engine, which in the two heavier models offers up to 12% more torque than previous models of a similar size. The excavators feature a cold weather protection system that recognises when engine temperatures are low and limits the maximum output to prevent premature component fail

    Both machines are powered by Doosan’s DL06K ‘common rail’ six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, said to meet Stage IIIB engine emission regulations through the use of EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) after-treatment technologies. The engine has a displacement of 5,890cm³ and is said to deliver 15% more power [82 kW @ 1850RPM] than previous Stage IIIA models. The engine also delivers 11% more torque (49.5kgf.m) in the DX160LC-3 model. Doosan said that factory tests had
