Diesel Particulate Filter definition

Diesel Particulate Filter means an emission control strategy that reduces diesel particulate matter emissions by directing all of the exhaust through a filter that physically captures particles but permits gases to flow through. Periodically, the collected particles are either physically removed or oxidized (burned off) in a process called regeneration.
Diesel Particulate Filter or “DPF” means an exhaust emissions aftertreatment device that physically entraps and prevents from being emitted into the air at least 85 percent of the particulate matter contained in the full exhaust stream emitted by the engine.
Diesel Particulate Filter means an emission control technology that reduces diesel particulate matter emissions by directing the exhaust through a filter that physically captures particles but permits gases to flow through.

  • Tap Diesel particulate filter: -Request regeneration from the service functions menu.2. Read the Note carefully and tap Continue to the next step.

  • Diesel particulate filter developers have therefore been working to develop better filter designs capable of storing more ash (i.e., extending the ash service interval) without adversely impacting overall filter size and cost.

Diesel Particulate Filter. (“DPF”) means an exhaust treatment device that is verified by ARB for use on off-road diesel engines, which reduces particulate matter through filtration, and incorporates passive or active regeneration of the DPF. Passive regeneration relies on the energy of the diesel exhaust to oxidize diesel particulate; active regeneration relies on a source of energy beyond the heat of the exhaust stream itself to aid in regeneration of the DPF.
Diesel Particulate Filter means an exhaust emissions aftertreatment device that
Diesel Particulate Filter or “DPF” means part of the emissions control system designed to capture particle emissions through a combination of filtration mechanisms, such as diffusional deposition, inertial deposition, or flow-line interception. The process of regeneration removes collected particulates from the DPF. During active regeneration, the emissions control system is modulated to increase exhaust temperature to promote combustion of the particulate matter by oxygen. Additionally, particulate matter is passively and continuously regenerated by reaction with NO2 at lower temperatures (the Continuously Regenerating Trap or CRT effect).
Diesel Particulate Filter or “DPF” means the device designed to remove diesel particulate matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine;
Diesel Particulate Filter means an exhaust emissions after treatment device that physically entraps and prevents from being emitted into the air at least 85 percent of the particulate matter contained in the full exhaust stream emitted by the engine 7:27-14.1
