Thermo King TriPac DPF - Engine Operation

Specifications
32
Engine Operation
The TriPac APU’s engine equipped with the diesel particulate
filter (DPF) must be maintained according to the engine
manufacturer’s recommendations for air cleaner change
interval, oil change interval, and other service related items as
outlined in the TriPac Operators Manual TK-53035 or the
TriPac DPF Operators Manual TK-53925.
Diesel Fuel
• Use Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel (ULSD) fuel which has
15 ppm sulfur content or lower.
• No additional fuel additives are required for proper
operation of this filter.
• Do not mix lube oil with the fuel in any concentration.
The lube oil in the fuel will result in premature
clogging of the DPF.
Engine Oil
• Engine oil consumption rate should be less than
1.1 quarts (1.0 liters) per 200 hours, or 1/4 quart (1/4
liters) per 50 hours. If the engine oil consumption rate
is higher, service the engine as needed to reduce the
oil consumption rate. A high oil consumption rate can
cause premature clogging of the DPF.
• Use only CJ-4 or better oil.
Injectors
Injectors must be serviced at time of the DPF installation if
they have not been serviced within the past 3000 engine hours.
In addition, injectors must be serviced at 3000 engine hour
maintenance intervals to maintain proper combustion and
proper operation of the DPF.
DPF Canister
If the DPF canister is ever suspected to be in need of cleaning,
contact the nearest authorized Thermo King dealer.
