Emission Control Systems

In the last ten years, the EPA passed some of the most rigorous regulations ever established regarding emissions from heavy-duty diesel trucks. The new EPA standards call for reductions in particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) as well as other categories of tailpipe pollutants.

Emission Control Systems at Ezzell Fleet Service

The good news is that newer systems, equipped with injectors for urea and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) can reduce NOx by as much as 90 percent, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide by 50- 90 percent, and PM emissions by 30-50 percent. These systems are complex, with an entire sensor chain sending feedback to the engine control computer. A problem with any of those sensors can cause your truck's emissions to be out of spec, as can issues at any point in the exhaust stream. While emissions controls aren't necessarily a safety issue, a truck with emissions that are out of spec can run sluggishly, be short on power and torque and can use up to 10-20% more fuel (not to mention being red-tagged for failing an emissions inspection).

At Ezzell Fleet Service, we can perform inspection and repairs on the following components and systems:

  • Diesel oxidation catalyst (DCC)
  • Diesel particulate filter (DPF)
  • Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system
  • Urea injection system
  • Exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR)
  • Closed crankcase ventilation system (CCV)
  • Filter cleaning or replacement
  • Diagnosis of emission-related engine trouble codes
  • Diagnosis and repair on your truck's engine control system and sensor chain

While the EPA's new regulations are for post- 2010 model trucks, we can also perform retrofits on older trucks to bring them into compliance with local or state regulations. A cleaner-running truck can stop damage to catalytic coatings and substrate materials and reduce the risk of employee injury due to accidental contact with hot surfaces and employee exposure to exhaust.
