Criteria to achieve emission reductions
This technology is approved for use on the engines and/or vehicles detailed in the enclosure provided all of the operating criteria are met as described below:
- As there may be variations from application to application, data logging and a review of actual vehicle operating conditions is required to ensure Purifilter Plus M compatibility. The installer must provide the fleet owners and/or operators with a copy of the pre- and post-installation checklists, as well as copies of the data logging results and recommended regeneration schedules. Fleet owners/operators are responsible for adhering to the recommended regeneration schedule. At a minimum, CDTi recommends that all fleets proactively regenerate the Purifilter Plus M every 4 to 6 weeks.
- The engine must be operated on ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) of 15 ppm or less.
- The engine must be in proper operating condition, well maintained, and not consume lubricating oil at a rate greater than that specified by the engine manufacturer.
- The vehicle may not be equipped with an oil burning system and lube oil or other oils may not be mixed with the fuel.
- CDTi installs the back-pressure monitor and logger unit and the remote driver display on all vehicles equipped with a Purifilter Plus M.
