HOW IT WORKS
5.1 General Properties
MINE-X SOOTFILTER
from the engine exhaust to burn the particulates inside the DPF. All DPFs in the MINE-X SOOTFILTER
family are catalytically coated to enhance performance. The catalytic coatings allow for lower regeneration or
balance temperatures which permit the use of filters on a wide range of applications. The wall-flow component
of the MINE-X SOOTFILTER
are open at one end and blocked at the opposite end. The alternately blocked channel design forces exhaust
gases to travel through the walls of the channels in order to escape (see Figure 5.1).

Since high exhaust temperatures are required for a DPF to function properly, DCL may conduct an 8 to 72 hour
data logging of the engine exhaust temperatures, prior to determining whether a MINE-X SOOTFILTER
suitable for the application.

applications.
The MINE-X SOOTFILTER
mesh filter comprised of rolled alternating layers of corrugated stainless steel and a stainless steel sintered metal
mesh. The second stage is a wall-flow diesel particulate filter. Due to the fact that it is a two-stage filter system,
the "LT" is longer than the MINE-X SOOTFILTER
improved particulate removal efficiencies and lower soot regeneration temperatures.
