How DPF Cleaning Works
DPF blockage can occur when soot and ash accumulate faster than regeneration can clear it. Machine cleaning is designed to restore proper exhaust flow.
What causes a DPF to block?
- Short journeys and low exhaust temperatures
- Long idle time (common on plant machinery)
- High soot loading and ash accumulation
- Failed or frequent regenerations
Machine cleaning vs regeneration
Regeneration burns soot, but it does not always resolve ash buildup. Professional machine cleaning is often used when regenerations become frequent or ineffective.
Our typical process
- Inspection and assessment
- Machine-based cleaning
- Flow/efficiency verification
- Filter ready for refitting
