DENSO Heavy Duty has been operating in North America for about 30 years now, dedicated to serving parts for commercial trucks and equipment. What they've mostly been known for is their rotating electric catalog, most recently in 2017, DENSO started pushing its new line of Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs).
DENSO partnered with Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (CDTi) to manufacture these new filters while DENSO handled the distribution end. Frank Jenkins, the senior manager of the Heavy Duty Marketing Group for DENSO cites CDTi as a "clean-tech company that shares our commitment to product reliability." CDTi is an emissions technology leader and has a multitude of experience with DPFs.
DPFs are pivotal in emissions management for Diesel engines. One product of diesel engines, in particular, is soot and I don't need to tell you how bad soot is for the air and for the environment. So DPFs catch and filer out the soot from the exhaust of the engine, thus cleaning up your emissions and extended the health of your engines and other parts of your vehicle.
DENSO PowerEdge Diesel Aftertreatment
The PowerEdge DPFs are very good at what they do. They remove close to 85% of diesel particulate matter (DPM), or soot as it's commonly known, from vehicle emissions. Their flow performance is in most cases better than OEM units which reduces backpressure and the upgraded stainless steel components resist corrosion and enhance durability. When you're dealing with emissions, EPA regulations are very strict, so you'll be happy to know that PowerEdge filters comply.
Quick Installation
When dealing with aftermarket upgrade parts, you're always concerned about the fit. The benefits are all great on paper, but nothing is more frustrating when you order the part and it won't fit during installation. DENSO and Co. have you covered there as well, as each OEM replacement unit comes with installation gaskets and clamps and is approved for horizontal, vertical and dual installations. PowerEdge also doubles down on providing full technical support nationwide.
Application Coverage
These DPFs cover a wide range of engine and vehicle applications. From Cummins to Detroit Diesel engines, and vehicle applications like Freightliner, GMC, Chevrolet, Dodge, RAM and Mercedes-Benz.
These units require no core charge and are warranty covered for two years or 36,000 miles.
