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.
