Regeneration
Regeneration is the removal of soot from the diesel particulate filter (DPF). The aftertreatment regeneration device (ARD) is used to regenerate the DPF. The DPF traps both soot and ash. The ash is removed through a manual cleaning process. Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Diesel Particulate Filter - Clean" for more information about servicing the DPF. Regeneration Indicator Lamps and Controls
Illustration 1 g02334417
The engine may be equipped with one of the control panels pictured above.
(1) "DPF" Indicator lamp
(2) "HIGH EXHAUST TEMPERATURE" indicator lamp
(3) "REGENERATION DISABLED" indicator lamp
(4) "START KEY" switch
(5) "DIAGNOSTIC" lamp
(6) "SHUTDOWN" lamp
(7) "IDLE SPEED" switch
(8) "REGENERATION" switch
(9) "HIGH SPEED REGENERATION" enable switch Note: For further information about the monitoring system, refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Monitoring System".
"HIGH EXHAUST SYSTEM TEMPERATURE (HEST)" - This indicator lamp illuminates to show that a regeneration is active. This indicator lamp turns off when the regeneration is complete.
"DPF" - This indicator lamp illuminates to show that a regeneration is needed. This indicator lamp illuminates when the soot level reaches 80%.
"REGENERATION DISABLED" - This indicator lamp illuminates to show that a regeneration has been disabled.Regeneration Controls
Regeneration Control Switch
Illustration 2 g02333653
"REGENERATION" control switch
The position of the "REGENERATION" switch in the side view is the MIDDLE position.
Note: The MIDDLE position of the switch is the default position for low and high speed regenerations.Note: Some OEMs use other means of activating a forced regeneration such as a touch screen interface.
"FORCE REGENERATION" - Press and hold in the top of the switch for 3 seconds to start regeneration.
"DISABLE REGENERATION" - Press and hold in the bottom of the switch for 3 seconds to disable regeneration.Note: To re-enable the regeneration, cycle the engine "START SWITCH KEY" or press and hold in the "FORCE REGENERATION" switch for 2 seconds.Note: If the engine "START SWITCH KEY" is cycled while the regeneration system is disabled via the "DISABLE REGENERATION" switch, press and hold in the "DISABLE REGENERATION" switch for 3 seconds to reinitiate the disable regeneration.OK to Elevate Idle Switch
Illustration 3 g02333673
"OK to Elevate Idle Switch" switch
The position of the "OK to Elevate Idle Switch" switch in the side view is the LOCKED position.
OK to Elevate Idle Switch - Pressing in and locking the "OK to Elevate Idle" switch enables the engine ECM to elevate engine speed automatically when needed. For example, if the engine is running at low idle and a DPF regeneration is activated, having the "OK to Elevate Idle" switch in the LOCKED position will allow the engine speed to increase in order for the DPF regeneration to occur.Note: This switch is only available on engines with instrument panels supplied by Cat.Soot Level Monitoring
Illustration 4 g02228033The soot level monitor indicates the level of soot that has accumulated within the DPF. The five marks on the monitor represent the percentage of soot within the DPF. The first mark indicates 0%
