2.4 Installation Type (c) – Standard Design for Genset/Stationary Engine
A standard DPF design is generally used for stationary engines and gensets. The primary difference between
DPFs provided for mobile equipment and DPFs provided for genset/stationary engine application is that often
the DPFs for genset or stationary engines are supplied with bolted flange connectors as requested by the
customer. If you have a DPF for a genset/stationary engine with slip-fit connections, please refer to section 2.3
regarding the installation of a standard DPF design on mobile equipment. Please follow the instructions below
to install the standard DPF for a genset/stationary engine.
1) If the DPF is to be mounted downstream of the original equipment muffler, then remove the original
muffler as it is a source of significant exhaust heat loss.
2) Determine a suitable space (inside or outside) the engine compartment for installation. Please take into
consideration the general installation guidelines in table 2.1. Make sure that the chosen installation spot
allows for horizontal installation of the DPF (i).
3) For designs containing quick-release clamps, support the DPF centrebody with a mounting band (ii).
Ensure that vibration dampers are used to isolate the DPF centrebody from engine vibration.
4) Install two ¼" NPT ports upstream of the DPF at the 12 o'clock position (iii).
5) If necessary, use a flex to isolate the DPF from vibrations from the engine or exhaust stream (iv).
6) Use support brackets (v) to mount the DPF to the frame.

7) Two
/
" test ports (vi) are provided to perform manual backpressure checks or emissions testing.

8) Bolt the DPF to the existing exhaust stream using the provided flange connectors (vii).
