Heat Treatment |
Cut the DPF and put it into an oven that gradually reaches 1100-1130F burning the carbon residuals. Then weld the DPF. |
8-12 hours
Pneumatic Cleaning: 90 minutes
Oven-baking: from 8-48 hours
|
Machineries:4
- Backpressure Tester
- Oven
- Compressor
- Aspiration cab
|
- Removal of most of the PM10 deposits
- Risk damaging the integrity of the filter because of the cutting and welding
- Melting of the cerium with the filter walls due to the high temperature
- Risk of the thermal shock that can damage the noble metals
|
Ultrasonic Treatment |
Dip the DPF into an ultrasonic tank full of water.
The ultrasonics form micro-bubbles inside where the temperature is very high and the pressure reaches 500ATM. The implosion of the bubbles causes the detachment matter from all of the filter substrates.
|
12-24 hours
Ultrasonic cleaning, drying and pneumatic cleaning.
|
Machineries: 3
- Ultrasonic Tank
- Oven
- Compressor
|
- Deep cleaning of filter cells
- Poor efficiency on very dirty filters (oil)
- Risk of damaging the filter due to the vibrations generated by the ultrasonics and the implosion of the bubbles
- High water consumption(need to change it often to eliminate the PM10 cleaning residuals which deposit at bottom)
|
Chemical Additives |
Put the chemical additives into the vehicle tank together with the fuel in the order to melt the burning residuals inside the engine and to eliminate them through the exhaust pipe.
|
|
Additive
- There is a wide range of additives; prices change according to the manufacturer and to the channel of sale.
|
- Easy and Cheap
- Ineffective: residuals are not actually eliminated and more are added to those generated by the additive itself, going to block further the particular filter
|
Flash cleaner machine |
Put the filter on the worktop of the washing cabin and connect it to the water pripe. Press STAR: depending on the type and the size of the filter, Flash Cleaner Machine performs the washing of the filter than dries it with hot air
|
From 30 minutes (car DPF-FAP) to 120 minutes (Truck DPF)
|
Machineries: 1
- Flash Cleaner Machine is a one-of-kind machinery that performs all of the cleaning phases (washing and drying) without cutting, oven-baking and welding.
|
- Total Removal of PM10 Residuals
- Remove of all oil residuals
- Remove of Cerium Residuals
- Efficient cleaning of all the types of particulate filter and catalyst (cars and heavy goods vehicles, also SCR) of every size
- Safety of the filter
- Preservation of the noble metals of the DPF
- Processing water always clean thanks to an efficient filtration system: no need to change water but only to add it when it evaporates.
- Easy, fast and Cheap
