The world is going through a global freight crisis, as there is a shortage of DEF fluid almost all over the globe. Trade wars between China and Australia have meant that China has stopped the production of DEF due to a shortage of coal in the manufacturing line. China imports coal from Australia, which is used in the manufacturing of DEF. However, China and Australia haven’t been trading as frequently due to trade wars.

DPFs are commonly found across most diesel engines today. Since initial development, DPF technology has come a long way to offer better functionality in engines. With different equipment categories and engine variants, there are some basic differences across DPF varieties used in light, medium and heavy duty as well as off-highway, highway, agriculture, PowerGen and forestry equipment. However, despite these differences in vehicle type, the functionality of the DPFs remains the same. The DPF filter is an expensive component that plays an integral role in the overall health of your engine. With time, your DPF can become clogged and cause problems if it is not addressed quickly. Some issues that you may see occur are with with fuel...
There is only one proven method for thoroughly cleaning every cell in the DPF to like-new condition. Ultrasonic DPF cleaning restores all the components to OE specifications, ensuring better fuel economy and maximum use from every DPF filter. The DPF Company cleaning system lowers costs by extending the useful life of every filter and including a hassle-free, industry-leading one-year performance guarantee to each operator. Our proprietary cleaning method uses high-frequency sound waves at millions of impulses per second. These impulses cause micro-miniature bubbles to break down soot and ash. Our specially formulated solution catches the contaminants and keeps them from sticking back to the cell walls, carrying all contaminants away from each cell. The DPF Company’s superior DPF...
Many diesel vehicles have a Diesel Particulate Filter. (DPF). In this article, we explain what it is, why it is needed and why it needs to be serviced. DPF stands for diesel particulate filter, and as the name suggests, it stops tiny diesel particles (otherwise known as soot) that are emitted from your vehicle’s exhaust. If certain precautions are not adhered to, the way DPF’s work can create problems. What is a DPF Filter? Diesel engines burn fuel a lot differently than gas engines. Soot is created as a result of the combustion process. This ultra-fine, nearly invisible material can cause serious environmental issues, it’s the DPF’s job to catch and destroy them before this happens. ...
