Custom DPF for Diesel Engine Equipment

Diesel engines have become essential in various manufacturing, industrial, mining and transportation industries. However, they produce harmful gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons(HC), and Diesel Particulate Matter(DPM) that pose significant health risks to the personnel especially in a confined workspace area.

The Australian government has set strict standards to regulate these emissions to protect the public and reduce environmental impact.

The Euro 4 standard is a set of regulations that aim to reduce emissions produced by new vehicles and machinery. The European Union implemented these standards in January 2005, and several countries have since adopted them.

The standards require significantly reducing carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxide emissions. Additionally, these regulations require a reduction in diesel particulate matter by 75%. Compliance with Euro 4 standards ensures that diesel engines are environmentally friendly.

To meet these high standards, numerous industries are increasingly adopting the installation of a DPF. This helps them comply with regulations, improve engine performance, and minimize engine maintenance requirements.

Diesel Particulate Filter for a 3.8L Engine running on 1800rpm

DPF-Flowtech

Our client in New South Wales, offering engineering services to the mining, industrial, and construction sectors, required a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) for a larger 3.8L engine operating at 1800rpm.

The Flowtech team recommended installing a custom DPF that meets Euro 4 standards and can function as a Filter and a Silencer in one. 

In addition, an extra catalytic converter was added to the engine system to further reduce emissions. As a result, our client achieved cleaner emissions making their workplace safer.

The Flowtech custom DPF design is a combination of Diesel Oxidation Catalyst also known as (DOC)  and Particle Oxidation Catalyst (POC) proven in removing a high level of Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrocarbons (HC) as well as over 60%-75% of Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM)

The DPF offers several advantages including:

  • Low maintenance
  • Low accumulation of soot particles
  • May be suitable as an increased flow alternative to a wall flow DPF
  • Mnimimal back pressure increase
  • Available as an add-in unit to an existing system on a project-based requirement
  • Can be adapted to suit bespoke OEM applications
  • Can be incorporated into a Flowtech silencer.

Reduce fuel efficiency – The build up of diesel particulate matter can also cause irreversible damage to engines and lead to expensive maintenance costs. A custom DPF filter will prevent issues and reduce your maintenance expenses in the long run.

Conclussion

In conclusion, custom DPFs are essential in reducing the harmful emissions produced by diesel-powered machinery and meeting stringent emission standards.

The Flowtech team offers customised solutions that guarantee compliance with Euro 4, 5 and 6 standards while improving overall performance and reducing maintenance costs.

Investing in a Flowtech custom DPF Muffler will go a long way in protecting the environment, the public’s health, and your industrial machinery.
