Buy wp20595 - Genuine Cummins DPF Particulate Filter - wisentpartscenter.com

Description

The Genuine Cummins Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is an exhaust aftertreatment component for Cummins X12 and X15 diesel engines. It traps soot particles from exhaust gases to reduce particulate emissions. The filter works with the engine's regeneration system to burn accumulated soot, maintain exhaust flow, and control exhaust backpressure.

Key Functions

- Soot Filtration: Captures particulate matter from diesel exhaust.
- Regeneration: Allows accumulated soot to burn off during regeneration cycles.
- Emissions Control: Reduces particulate emissions from the exhaust system.
- Exhaust Flow: Maintains proper exhaust flow when the filter is clear.

- Part Type: Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
- Engine Applications: Cummins X12 / X15 - EPA 2017
- Engine Displacement: X12 – 11.8L; X15 – 14.9L

Purpose of the Part

The Cummins Diesel Particulate Filter traps soot in its internal filter substrate while allowing exhaust gases to pass through. During regeneration, elevated exhaust temperatures burn off the accumulated soot. Noncombustible ash remains inside the filter and requires periodic cleaning or replacement. Proper DPF operation prevents excessive exhaust restriction and supports emissions compliance.

Issue Symptoms / When to Replace

A clogged, cracked, or damaged DPF may cause:

- Frequent, incomplete, or failed regeneration cycles.
- DPF warning lights or aftertreatment fault codes.
- High exhaust backpressure.
- Reduced engine power or derate.
- Increased fuel consumption.
- Excessive soot accumulation or restricted exhaust flow.

Similar symptoms can result from faulty differential pressure sensors, exhaust temperature sensors, exhaust leaks, or engine problems causing excessive soot production.

Brand Information

Cummins manufactures diesel engines and exhaust aftertreatment systems for commercial vehicles and industrial equipment. Its aftertreatment systems combine diesel oxidation catalysts, particulate filters, and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology to control exhaust emissions. Genuine Cummins DPF components are specified for the corresponding engine and emissions configuration.

Installation Notes

Before installing the DPF, inspect the exhaust connections, clamps, gaskets, and differential pressure sensor lines. Correct any engine or aftertreatment faults that caused the original filter to clog or fail. Follow Cummins procedures for required DPF service resets and verify regeneration operation after installation.

How to Identify an OEM Part

Identify the Genuine Cummins DPF by its factory identification label, stamped part number, and manufacturing markings on the metal housing.
