DPF Regeneration Scunthorpe
After diagnosing the DPF condition, we perform one of the following regeneration procedures as per requirement:
Active Regeneration
Active regeneration is an automatic process initiated by your vehicle’s Engine Control Unit (ECU) when the DPF reaches a predetermined level of soot accumulation. This process involves injecting additional fuel into exhaust stream to raise the temperature in DPF to around 600°C. At this temperature, the soot burns off, converting it to harmless ash that remains in the filter.
Passive Regeneration
In this process, our experts elevate the DPF’s temperature naturally to a point where soot burns off without any need for additional fuel injection. They run the car’s engine for approximately 20 minutes at a speed of 40 mph. This heats the DPF 600 degrees Celsius and cleans the residues.
Manual Regeneration
Our technicians perform manual regeneration using special diagnostic equipment. This process is necessary when the soot level in the DPF exceeds the threshold that active or passive regeneration can manage.
