The PERMIT Filter is CARB verified - Level 3, for emergency and prime power stationary diesel engines to reduce particulate matter by greater than 85 percent. It also reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide by up to 99 percent. The CleanAIR PERMIT Filter/Silencer with the CleanAIR HiBACK Data Logger and Alarm System is a complete air pollution control system for stationary generators. |

In addition, they are responsible for the maintenance and repair of a variety of other diesel powered equipment including generators, compressors and pumps used in industry. The program also includes instruction on drive trains, brakes, electrical, hydraulics and other related areas of trucks and construction equipment. Before making repairs, a Diesel and Heavy Equipment technician inspects and tests components to determine why a unit is not operating properly. After the cause of the trouble has been located, repairs or replacement of defective parts and necessary adjustments are made. Lean more at www.westerntc.edu |
![]() | Peugeot Sport making History The Group PSA Peugeot Citroën On 14 June 2005, Peugeot announced its decision to take up a new technological challenge: to win one of the most prestigious and most demanding motor races in the world, the Le Mans 24 Hours, with a car powered by an HDi diesel engine, equipped with a diesel particulate filter system. This symbolic race, with attracts more than 200.000 spectators every year, will be used by Peugeot as an opportunity to showcase their brand values: reliability, dynamic performance, style illustrated by the feline lines and, finally, innovation expressed, amongst other means, by the use of environmentally friendly technology. Why will Peugeot be at Le Mans with a diesel engine? The PSA Peugeot Citroën group is today a world leader in diesel technology. « Common rail direct injection » HDi technology can be found on more than 60% of vehicles sold by the brand in Europe in 2005 and more than 70% in France. In 2000, Peugeot confirmed its commitment and strategic policy to reduce exhaust emissions, by fitting as standard equipment on the HDi engine in the 607 a diesel particulate filter system. In December 2005, Peugeot celebrated the production of the millionth vehicle fitted with a diesel particulate filter system. Today, it is the production car which brings its HDi diesel particulate filter technology to the competition arena, in order to show its qualities in extreme conditions of endurance and performance, all the while respecting the environment. The Peugeot HDi diesel DPFS: The choice of engine architecture has been based on a 100° twelve-cylinder V design, This is the maximum cylinder capacity that regulations allow and was chosen for it efficient operation at low speed. It also enables engine power to be limited in the first instance, but also enables further development. The number of cylinders results, on the one hand, from the wish to keep bore diameter very close to that of a production series engine, in order to make best use of Peugeot's diesel combustion knowledge and, on the other hand, to limit the stroke to a reasonable value. The V12 architecture, well known for its good balance, also reduces vibration to a minimum. The 100° V angle, of the V12 architecture, allows the height of the centre of gravity to be lowered without affecting the torsional rigidity of the engine. Two diesel particulate filters are mounted at the end of each of the exhaust systems. Through technology which has come directly from production cars, they will provide a guaranteed control of exhaust emissions under all operating conditions. The two diesel particulate filters fitted to the engine being presented, carry the numbers 1.195.520 and 1.195.521 which are the numeric production numbers of the filters in the overall production total of all filters since the introduction on to Peugeot vehicles. The level of performance expected - more than 515kW (700 bhp) of power and a torque output greater than 1.200 Nm - is without precedent in a diesel engine and is a direct result of Peugeot's current level of know-how in diesel technology, linked to the mechanical characteristics of the V12. Bosch is one of Peugeot Sport's essential partners on this project, making an active contribution to the specification of the fuel injection components and to the engine management system. Peugeot Sport's engine department: With the arrival of this new challenge, Peugeot Sport was re-organised at the end of the 2005 World Rally Championship. Claude Guillois, under the supervision of technical manager Bruno Famin, was named as manager of the engine department thanks to his experience of race engines, supercharged engines and knowledge of production engine design. The department is based at Peugeot Sport's Vélizy facility, which includes three engine test beds, including one for simulation. |
![]() | See How The CleanAIR PERMIT Filter Works View the CleanAIR PERMIT Filter at work as it reduces diesel emissions of particulate matter by greater than 85%, and reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide by up to 99% on off-road diesel vehicles. The PERMIT Filter is individually customized for each application and can be designed as a filter/muffler emissions control system taking the place of a standard muffler. Diesel retrofits using particulate filters can substantially reduce toxic air pollution emissions at a construction site or mining facility. |
