Patent No. 7,384,455
This user manual provides cleaning instructions for after-treatment diesel particulate
filters (DPFs).
•The after-treatment diesel oxidation catalyst and the after-treatment diesel particulate
filter housing must be free of dents.
• Mounting flanges must be free of dents, cracks, or gouges in order to seal correctly
with the gaskets.
• After-treatment diesel particulate filters should be inspected prior to cleaning using
appropriate OE technical procedures.
•
DPF cleaning machines are not designed to clean DPF filters that are plugged as
a result of excessive fluids in the exhaust system, such as coolant, fuel, or oil.
• SPX is not liable for a pre-existing condition in the DPF that would render the
filter unstable, if using the cleaning machine identifies such a condition exists.
Particulate filters that do not pass these criteria should be
replaced and not cleaned.

WARNING
Safety Precautions
Ash produced by diesel particulate filters has been declared a hazardous waste in some areas of the
United States. Follow federal, state, and local procedures for the handling and disposal of ash.
To prevent personal injury when using the Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner :
•Study, understand, and follow all instructions before operating this device. If the operator cannot
read these instructions, operating instructions and safety precautions must be read and discussed
in the operator’s native language.
•Wear eye protection that meets OSHA standards. If there is eye contact with the ash, flush eyes
with cold water for 30 minutes.
•Set up the DPF Cleaner in an area where there is adequate ventilation. Wear a dust mask (rated
N95) to avoid breathing the ash. If dust is seen escaping from the machine during a cleaning
procedure, immediately stop the DPF Cleaner and check all connections.
•Wear nitrile gloves that meet OSHA standards. If there is skin contact with the ash, thoroughly
wash the skin with soap and water.
•
Wear ear protection that meets OSHA standards. The noise made during the burst process is within
the acceptable decibel rating for unprotected ears; however, ear protection is recommended.
•Never attempt to clean a DPF that is too hot to touch.
•A DPF must be securely clamped in place before a cleaning cycle is initiated.
•Unplug the DPF Cleaner before beginning any service work. Incorrect use or connections can
cause electrical shock.
•An extension cord may overheat, resulting in a fire. If you must use an extension cord, use the
shortest possible cord with a minimum size of 14 AWG.
•Use the DPF Cleaner only for the purpose of which it was designed. Use only those adapters
approved by the manufacturer.
Explanation of Safety Signal Words
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury.
CAUTION: Used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in property damage.

1. There are brakes on the two wheels located on the end of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
Cleaner. Lock the brakes by stepping on the ON side of the paddle. This helps steady the cleaner
during the cleaning process. See Figure 1.
Figure 1
2. Plug the power cord from the DPF Cleaner
into a 110V, 15 AMP outlet. If an extension
cord is necessary, use the shortest possible
cord with a minimum size of 14 AWG.
3. Connect shop air (120 psi minimum) to the
filter / dryer air fitting located on the end of
the machine. Note: An air line pressure of
120–150 psi is recommended to provide an
optimum tank fill rate.
4. Pull out the ON / OFF button on the control
panel. The display briefly shows the version
of software in the unit.
5. The unit then verifies an air supply has been
connected, and the display message asks
the user to verify the air filter / dryer does
not need maintenance. Note: If the service
indicator on the coalescing filter is red, or if
the color indicator beads in the desiccant are
pink, refer to the Maintenance section of this
manual for replacement instructions.

I. Remove the diesel particulate filter (DPF) from the vehicle according to the appropriate OE technical
manual or bulletin regarding DPFs.
CAUTION: To prevent equipment damage, inspect the DPF to verify it is not plugged with coolant,
oil, fuel, or any other substance which might obstruct the cleaning process.

2. Refer to Application Chart No. 554506
and determine the appropriate cone and
adapters for the application.
CAUTION: Some DPF designs contain
open ports. To prevent personal injury from
ash escaping during the burst cycle, use
plastic or steel plugs to close all open ports
on the DPF.
3. Verify the DPF Cleaner table is clean. Place
the lower adapter on the table with the
piloting edge of the adapter in the hole in the
table. The adapter flange should rest on the
o-ring in the table. See Figure 2.
4. Attach the adapter cone to the quick connect
coupler, positioning the cone so the pressure
port is facing the pressure transducer hose.
Connect the pressure transducer hose to the
pressure port on the cone. See Figure 3.

5.
Place the DPF on the lower adapter with the arrow on the side of the DPF pointing UP (indicating the
direction of the exhaust flow). The DPF must be flat on the lower adapter with no visible gaps between
the DPF and the adapter. See Figure 4.
6. If an upper adapter is necessary for your
application, place the upper adapter on the
DPF with the rubber seal facing the DPF.
See Figure 5. The upper adapter must be flat
on the DPF with no visible gaps between the
adapter and the DPF.

7. Attach the magnet (provided) to the side of the DPF. Clamp the alligator clip of the DPF cleaner’s
ground wire to the magnet. Note: If the DPF canister has a protruding edge that can securely hold
the alligator clip, or if the DPF is not magnetic, it is permissible to ground the unit by clamping the
alligator clip to a protruding edge instead. See Figure 6.
8. Close and latch the doors to the pressure
chamber. The DPF Cleaner will not operate
until the doors are secure. See Figure 7.
