How long does a passive regen take?
Parked/Stationary regeneration is used when the Passive, Assist and Reset regenerations do not adequately reduce the soot in the soot filter. This process requires the operator or technician to start a Parked regeneration within the InfoCenter’s Service menu (it typically takes about 30 minutes).
How long does it take a truck to Regen?
A forced regen occurs when soot builds up inside the diesel particulate filter (DPF) to the point that the vehicle is no longer operable. When this happens, a driver has to pull over and initiate a self-cleaning process that can take up to 40 minutes — valuable time that could have been spent on the road.
What happens during a Regen cycle on a diesel truck?
An active regen cycle is a normal process that takes place as the truck is going down the road. A computer sensor monitors the DPF and a dashboard indicator light notifies the driver that the regen is taking place, or the DPF is now cleaning. “You’ll notice a reduction in power during a regen,” notes Nace.
When to stop the Regen on a dump truck?
It isn’t good to stop it in the middle of a cycle but it won’t hurt the DPF unless you do it all the time, say in a dump truck application. That light only comes on to serve as a warning to not park on top of something like very dry grass that may catch fire. You only need to do a manual regen when the engine asks for it, which *hopefully* is rare.
When do you do a manual Regen on a truck?
You only need to do a manual regen when the engine asks for it, which *hopefully* is rare. And when you do, you gotta do the whole park, release brakes, park, maybe clutch on some, cruise off, then push the start regen button for about 5 seconds.
Is the Regen supposed to take place while driving?
Seems as if the regen that is supposed to take place while driving does not happen, then it needs to continually have a manual regen. Any thoughts or remedies?
