The exhaust filter must be handled correctly when it reaches the end of its useful
life, as ash or catalyst substances in the device may be classified as hazardous
waste under local laws or regulations. Exhaust filter replacements, including the
particulate filter, can be ordered from McConnel.
6.5.3 - RESET REGENERATION
Reset regeneration is carried out automatically by the RC40 every 100 hours.
This regeneration lasts for 30 minutes, during which:
• the regeneration light comes on.
• the customer can safely continue to work.
• the machine does not produce an alarm code.
In the event that the machine fails to perform reset regeneration because, for example, the machine has
been switched off during this operation, the RC40 will request a stationary regeneration (see paragraph
6.5.4).
6.5.4 - STATIONARY REGENERATION
The EAT system (exhaust) constantly checks for fume obstruction inside the DPF. Even if the DPF
checks the regeneration frequently and the machine does not work at full load, it cannot be regenerated.
This means that if the motor is not used with loads which have power absorptions greater than 60%, the
control unit will not easily allow the regeneration operations.
The electronic control unit determines when stationary regeneration has to be carried out. The DPF
regeneration request symbol appears on the display (see section 6.4.7) and warns the operator via an
acoustic signal.
Stationary regeneration is only requested when 50 hours have passed since the last complete regeneration;
regardless of the type of regeneration carried out, whether reset or stationary.
• If the DPF regeneration request symbol appears, carry out stationary regeneration immediately.
• If the DPF regeneration request indicator is ignored (see section 6.4.7), an excessive quantity
of particulates accumulate in the DPF, causing them to burn, which could result in a fire and
damage to the DPF.
