Regeneration of the particulate filter
The particulate filter is regenerated, i.e. cleaned,
automatically. If a certain amount of soot is ac-
cumulated, the engine enters a periodic and auto-
matic program to reduce the amount of soot. The
engine can be used without any impact on oper-
ation.
However, if the particulate filter becomes full, it
must be regenerated manually. The engine can-
not be used for approximately 45 minutes while
manual regeneration is carried out. The particu-
late filter symbol is used to indicate that the par-
ticulate filter is full and needs to be regenerated
manually.
During manual regeneration, the engine speed
can rise to 1,500 rpm for all-speed engines. For
engines configured as single-speed, all regenera-
tion occurs at the selected rotational speed.
The components in the exhaust system may be-
come hot.
Make sure that there is no combustible material
near the exhaust pipe.
It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that
the machine is in a safe location and safe condi-
tion when performing manual regeneration.
Examples of actions include:
- Applying the parking brake.
- Disengaging the generator set.
The symbol and behaviour of the warning lamp
depend on the installation of the engine in the
machine. The Scania recommendation will lead
to the behaviour and symbol described here, but
this may differ between different machines.
