FSX Cleaning System

The FSX cleaning system is state of the art and is used by the majority of engine OEM’s including Cummins, Volvo and DAF.

Importantly, as well as effectively cleaning the DPF the process also evaluates the condition and suitability for re-use and emissions compliance. Excalibre have an extensive database of baseline flow reading for the full range of DPF’s. After the cleaning process each DPF’s flow characteristics are checked against the database to ensure the flow is retuned to baseline. Where the parameters are not met the process is repeated together with an optional thermal process.

Advantages:

• OE standard process
• Pneumatic cleaning, thermal process only performed when required to prolong DPF life.
• Detection of breached cells
• Non-invasive dry process
• All waste products safely collected and disposed of.
• Full reporting and results database.
