Product Description
DPF Cleaning Gun is a special cleaning gun, purposely designed to be used with Penrite DPF Cleaning Fluids. Includes a hose with a conical nozzle, this nozzle should be connected to the soft hose of the front pressure sensor. This is typically the easiest access option which gives good results with minimal effort.
Directions for use:
Always use appropriate PPE when required (gloves and safety goggles)
1st Step – DPF Cleaning Fluid
- Fill the DPF Cleaning Gun tank with the DPF Cleaning Fluid and connect the sprayer to an air compressor, the pressure reducer connected to the gun will automatically reduce the pressure to 4kg/cm2
- Ensure the engine has reached its normal operating temperature and turn it off
- Locate the pressure sensor, for cars this sensor is usually located under the bonnet, for larger 4WD or SUVs this sensor is usually located closer to the DPF
- Connect the conical nozzle to the pressure sensor hose leading to the front of the DPF
- Pulse the DPF Cleaning Fluid into the front pressure hose for 1 min and let it settle for 2-3 mins, repeat this step until all the DPF Cleaning Fluid has been used
- Once the DPF Cleaning Fluid has been used, run the engine for 2-3 mins at 2000-2500 RPM
2nd Step – DPF Flushing Fluid
- Fill the DPF Cleaning Gun tank with the DPF Flushing Fluid and connect the sprayer to an air compressor, the pressure reducer connected to the gun will automatically reduce the pressure to 4kg/cm2
- Connect the conical nozzle to the pressure sensor hose leading to the front of the DPF, the same as in the 1st step
- Start the engine. With the engine running at around 2000 RPM pulse the complete amount of DPF Flushing Fluid into the front pressure hose, the DPF Cleaning Gun tank has a 1L capacity and will need to be refilled during this process. Turn the vehicle off before removing the gun to refill.
- After flushing, ensure the sensor hose is dried carefully using your air compressor, to prevent sensor damage or incorrect reading from the ECU/diagnostic tools
- Reconnect the sensor and drive the car for 20 mins at a consistent speed at 2500 RPM to initiate a regeneration cycle. Alternatively, start a regeneration cycle via the computer following the car manufacturer's guidelines
- Reset any warning codes/signals related to DPF blockage or malfunctioning
- Clean the DPF Cleaning Gun and DPF Cleaning Probe (if used) thoroughly with water immediately after use
Benefits
