What is Reconditioning?

Definition: To restore a used product back to a near-new state of functionality.

Application: Diesel Particulate Filters.

Dinex has introduced Reconditioning as a central concept, defined as the restoration of a used product, particularly exemplified in Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF). DPFs play a crucial role in trapping over 99% of particulate matter in exhaust gases, preventing environmental pollution. However, over time, accumulated ash in the filter necessitates attention.

Cleaning vs. Reconditioning

What’s the difference?

When facing filter maintenance, users typically choose between installing a new filter (costly), cleaning the existing one (only partially effective), or opting for a reconditioned filter. Dinex distinguishes between cleaning and reconditioning, emphasizing that reconditioning goes beyond mere cleaning. It involves a chemical dissolvent process that removes hardened ash, fully restoring the catalytic coating and bringing the filter close to a new state.
