DPF Cleaning Machine
Specialized service device that restores flow through a DPF (diesel particulate filter) in passenger cars and heavy-duty vehicles. In its classical mode it uses hydrodynamic technology (wet washing with controlled flow and differential-pressure measurement) to remove accumulated soot. In modern solutions the dominant approach is Otomatic’s hybrid technology (DPF-Hybrid™): a three-stage process combining a preparation stage, hydrodynamic wet cleaning as the core, and a finishing cycle that removes residual ash and soot left after drying, improving cleaning accuracy and protecting the filter substrate. The process is automated by the AI SmartClean™ algorithm, which shortens service time and stabilizes DPF cleaning quality in a professional DPF service.
What is a DPF cleaning machine?
A DPF cleaning machine is equipment used to restore the efficiency of diesel particulate filters (DPF/FAP) in passenger cars, trucks, and buses. It removes soot and ash deposits, bringing back up to 99% of the filter’s flow capacity without the need for replacement.
How does a DPF cleaning machine work?
The machine operates in a closed water circulation system, where pressure and temperature are precisely controlled to remove contaminants from the filter. The process is safe, does not damage the filter structure, and restores factory-like performance.
Why use a DPF cleaning machine?
- cost savings – no need for expensive filter replacement
- fast cleaning process (1–2 hours)
- proven efficiency confirmed by flow tests
- eco-friendly solution
How long does the DPF cleaning process take?
On average, the cleaning process takes between 1 and 2 hours.
Is DPF cleaning safe for the filter?
Yes, the machine works in a closed circuit and does not damage the filter’s structure.
Which filters can be cleaned?
It can handle DPF/FAP filters from passenger cars, vans, trucks, and buses.
Does DPF cleaning restore full filter efficiency?
In most cases, the filter’s flow capacity returns to 95–99% of its original performance.
