 VorTEQ system is a Level 3 Plus diesel emission control system |
The California Air Resources Board has granted conditional verification to Nett Technologies Inc. for its VorTEQ 100 Active Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) System.
The VorTEQ system is a Level 3 Plus (greater than 85% reduction) diesel emission control system for off-road diesel engines between 65 and 175 HP. It is verified to particulate matter (PM) emission levels of 0.26 g/kWh or less and is compliant with CARB's 2009 nitrogen dioxide standard.
The system uses a diesel fuel burner to oxidise the soot that accumulates in the DPF and has a controller that perpetually records the operating parameters of the system, as per the CARB verifications requirements. The controller is equipped with a cab-mounted touch-screen interface. The display alerts the operator when a regeneration of the DPF is required and indicates any errors within the system.
The system is designed to replace original equipment exhaust components.
Canada-based Nett Technologies Inc. specialises in the design, development and manufacture of pollution control solutions for the OEM and retrofit markets.
