CATALyTIC pURIfIER
(OpTIONAL)
(fig.178/C)
Duration
As the catalyst is not actively involved in the chemical reac-
tion it provokes, its life is theoretically unlimited. However, due
to certain conditions such as: engines not perfectly tuned,
vehicle vibrations and the abrasive effect of fumes on the
support, the life of the catalyst may be shortened. In reality,
the life of the catalytic purifier is about
10000 working hours
.
maintenance
The catalyst is activated by the high temperature of the fu-
mes which also prevents any particles from depositing on
the honeycomb; less maintenance is, consequently, needed.
It is advisable to clean the purifier
every 500 working
hours
. Remove the catalyst and place it in a container with
hot soapy water, making sure it is completely emerged. Le-
ave it to soak for 5 hours, then wait for it dry completely (a
gentle jet of compressed air could possibly be used to speed
up drying) and remount.
WATER DRIVEN PURIFIER
(OPTIONAL)
(fig.179/C)
The water driven purifier is manufactured entirely in stain-
less steel with titanium and is resistant to high temperatures
and to corrosive sulphurous compounds which are present
in the exhaust fumes.
It consists of a horizontal cylindrical body (sized accor-
ding to engine power) which makes up the water tank, two
mounting brackets and a cylindrical tower located on the
upper part of the water tank that contains the separator.
The gases are directed through an entry tube to the interior
part of the purifier and then passed to the water. The car-
bonaceous particles become heavier upon contact with the
water and fall to the bottom of the water tank.
The gases are then directed towards the separator which
recovers the carbonaceous particles that have not fused
with the water. The white smoke emitted from the exhaust is
simply water vapour.
maintenance
Maintenance of the water driven purifier is
ExTREmELy
ImpORTANT
and the water must be
changed
every
8
working hours.
The tank must be emptied using the spheri-
cal drain valve and clean water must be added through the
loading and level cock.
The black sludge which comes out when changing the water is
proof of the purifier’s effectiveness.
Every 300 working hours
the purifier must be
cleaned
: drain the water and clean the
inside for a few minutes using a pressurised jet.
diEci
also
provides the additive TAM which, if added to the water at eve-
ry change, helps to keep the purifier clean. TAM also improves
the performance of the purifier: it neutralises sulphuric acids.
