DPF Cleaning
Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) require a regular service known as de-ashing or filter cleaning. This process is required to remove unburned lube oil or ash that has accumulated in the DPF. The material that is removed from the DPF during cleaning is considered hazardous waste and therefore it must be handled and disposed of in a safe and controlled environment.
Cummins Power Systems' has been cleaning DPFs for several years. Our experience has led us to the conclusion that not one technology or cleaning method can be applied to all DPFs. For that reason, we use multiple technologies and methods to ensure the DPFs we service get cleaned sufficiently and safely. In some cases, a DPF may not be able to be cleaned by one of our cleaning machines. In these cases the DPF needs to be sent to the manufacturer to be cleaned. When this is required, Cummins Power Systems has the processes in place to ensure your filter is returned to you as quickly as possible.
If you have DPFs that need cleaning, bring it to us or give us call to discuss our services and options. We offer:
- On-site cleaning for retrofit DPFs
