Installation Notes

The DPF is designed to replace the existing vehicle silencer. The filter position should be as close to the turbocharger outlet or exhaust manifold as practically possible. In most modern vehicles this is normally the position of the vehicles existing silencer. If the pipe length between the engine and the inlet to the DPF is longer than 2 meters or 6 feet, or if data logging determines it necessary, the front pipe between these points should be insulated with a suitable exhaust thermal insulation material. Any insulation material that is saturated with water will have a cooling effect upon the exhaust as the water evaporates which will inhibit the operation of the DPF. Insulation materials that become contaminated with oil or fuel are a fire hazard. To prevent this, insulation materials should be covered in a suitable way to prevent fluid absorption. Exhaust heat shields will also be required in areas close to sensitive components and moving parts. The DPF is much heavier than most standard vehicle silencers. Support brackets and mountings must be in sound condition to be able to withstand the increased weight. Mount the DPF rigid to the chassis, with flexible pipe between the DPF and the engine manifold to absorb the vibration.
