DPF filter cleaning in Volvo EC240B crawler excavator
The Volvo EC240B crawler excavator arrived at WIBAKO service with a clogged DPF filter and a loss of performance while working in difficult construction conditions. The machine had been intensively used for earthworks and infrastructure tasks.
During diagnostics, our specialists detected elevated back pressure in the exhaust system and significant accumulation of soot and ash in the particulate filter. Further operation of the machine could lead to turbocharger damage, increased fuel consumption, and the engine entering limp mode.
The Volvo EC240B model is a popular crawler excavator used on construction sites, for road works, and earthmoving tasks. Working under varying loads and frequent work cycles promotes the accumulation of contaminants in the DPF filter.
After disassembling the DPF filter, we conducted a thorough inspection of its technical condition. We then performed professional cleaning and regeneration of the filter, effectively removing soot and ash accumulated inside the element. This restored proper exhaust flow and operating parameters of the exhaust system.
After completing the regeneration, the filter was reinstalled in the machine, and the entire system underwent control tests. The operating parameters returned to nominal values, and the excavator regained full power and operational efficiency.
At WIBAKO, we perform professional cleaning and regeneration of DPF filters in excavators, loaders, bulldozers, dumpers, and other construction machines of brands such as Volvo, Liebherr, Caterpillar, Komatsu, JCB, and Doosan. We also offer comprehensive diagnostics of exhaust systems and engine servicing for construction machines.
