Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)

"The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) catalyst oxidises hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide into harmless substances, like a conventional catalyst, but also simultaneously reduces Particulate Matter"

How does it work?

The exhaust gases flow through the filter’s substrate walls where the Particulate Matter is trapped and collected. A regeneration process, triggered by the engine management system, then burns off the soot.

The DPF is self-cleaning and requires no long-term maintenance. Particulate Matter is easily inhaled due to its small size, and can be very harmful.
