What is Volvo EATS?

How long does a regen take on a Volvo excavator?

What is a Eats system fault?

“Excessive oil or coolant consumption by the engine can have a negative consequence on the Engine Aftertreatment System (EATS),” says Granger. “The EATS can be contaminated by liquid oil or the oil can be oxidized in the DPF, leading to excessive ash loading that will require the DPF filter to be cleaned prematurely.

What is a one box on a truck?

The innovative 1-Box™ Configuration, available only with Detroit® engines, combines the SCR catalyst, the diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF) and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) into one compact component. The 1-Box comes standard on every truck, in combination with the engine of your choosing.

Can you clean a one box?

Not all of the ash can be burned off, so it is necessary to clean or replace the DPF’s when this ash starts to accumulate. There are many aftermarket cleaning methods available (bake & blow, etc) but the only method approved by Detroit® is Detroit® Reman’s proprietary liquid-cleaning process.

What does the SCR box do?

SCR treats the exhaust gases downstream of the engine instead of requiring complex changes under the hood. It does this by injecting a small amount of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) into the exhaust stream. DEF reacts with the NOx in the SCR catalyst to form nitrogen and water.

Why is the DPF on my Volvo truck black?

Severe black coating on the surfaces behind the DPF indicates that the DPF is cracked or partially melted. The DPF failure is unrecoverable and it must be replaced. The exhaust aftertreatment system also includes two components designed to increase exhaust system temperature for DPF regeneration.
