(soot) exiting the engine. Heat from the engine exhaust burns off the particulates in a continuous manner. With the DPF installed, the equipment can be operated as normal in most respects. A DCL Exhaust Pressure Monitor allows the operator to monitor the status of the DPF. - Page 4 Sound Attenuation and Silencing: For most off-highway vehicles, the sound attenuation properties of DCL DPFs are the same or in many cases better than the original muffler. In general, the installation of a DPF on an off-highway vehicle allows the original muffler to be removed without a negative impact on exhaust noise.
