Truck EGR & DPF Services in Idaho Falls, ID

EGR Systems Explained

Your EGR system is designed to reduce the amount of NOx produced by your heavy-duty diesel engine. For perspective, NOx production is highly dependent on your engine’s combustion temperature. The hotter your engine gets, the more NOx is produced! As such, the ultimate goal of your EGR system is to lower your combustion temperature. 

To lower your combustion temperature, your EGR system recirculates a portion of your spent exhaust fumes through a cooler and then back into your air intake. This influx of cold air drops your engine’s overall temperature and decreases NOx production. 

DPFs Explained

Your DPF is designed to capture carbon, soot, and other diesel particulate matter before it can exit your truck’s exhaust system. It does this using a fine mesh-like material that captures the vast majority of what goes through it. One thing to keep in mind is that your DPF has a finite storage capacity. This means it will eventually need to be cleaned. Otherwise, your DPF will get clogged and your engine will face immense back pressure.
