Does the Sagitar have a particulate filter?
1 Answers
The Sagitar is equipped with a particulate filter, which is standard across all models of the Sagitar. Therefore, the Sagitar does have a particulate filter. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the exhaust system of diesel engines, designed to capture particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce the soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate matter is subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. How the particulate filter works: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the exhaust particulate trap through a dedicated pipe. Inside, a densely arranged bag-type filter captures the carbon particles on a metal fiber mat filter. When the accumulation of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the captured carbon particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check if the Sagitar has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if there is a particulate filter function. Additionally, carefully review the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "Particulate Filter" warning light indicator. Check the label on the oil cap. If the oil cap clearly states the use of 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. Look behind the catalytic converter on the exhaust pipe for an additional cylindrical section. If present, that is the particulate filter.
