What Does China VI Regeneration Mean?
1 Answers
China VI vehicle regeneration actually refers to the regeneration of the particulate filter. If the particulate filter becomes clogged, diesel vehicles can use the particulate filter regeneration function to make the engine run quickly, raising the temperature to clean the tiny particles in the particulate filter. This cleaning process is called regeneration. The particulate filter needs to be cleaned regularly, and there are now specialized cleaning devices available for this purpose. DPF regeneration methods are divided into two types: passive regeneration and active regeneration. Passive regeneration generally does not require manual intervention; the truck completes the regeneration process on its own. Active regeneration is further divided into three types: driving regeneration, parked regeneration, and service regeneration. During driving, if the regeneration status indicator light stays on, it means that driving regeneration has started working. At this point, you only need to maintain the current driving state until the indicator light turns off, indicating that the driving regeneration process is complete. For gasoline-powered cars, if the particulate filter becomes clogged, you can shift to S gear and then accelerate on the highway for a while to solve the clogging issue. This is because when the car accelerates, the exhaust pipe temperature rises rapidly, burning off the tiny particles in the particulate filter and thus resolving the clogging problem. The particulate filter effectively captures tiny particles from the exhaust before they enter the air, reducing the pollution level of the exhaust. It is important to note that the engine must not be turned off during the particulate filter regeneration process, which typically takes about ten minutes.
