 Owners Manual: Chili™ EHDPF System For Thermo King TriPac® APUs

The Proventia Chili™ EHDPF is easy to install and inexpensive to operate. It’s called an Electrically Heated Diesel Particulate Filter (EHDPF) because it uses electric heat to regenerate, or clean, the exhaust soot out of the filter. The Chili™ EHDPF is available to fit onto the Thermo King TriPac® APU.

Best features of the Chili™ EHDPF

• Operation and regeneration occur without any driver interaction. Competitive systems require the driver to push a button to begin filter cleaning process.

• No special high amperage alternator is required—the standard APU alternator is enough. Competitive systems require 160 amp or higher alternator to be installed on main truck engine.

• No special low-ash lubrication oil for the TriPac® is required. Competitive systems require a low-ash oil for proper operation.

• The Chili™ EHDPF requires only three inches additional clearance behind existing TriPac® muffler. Competitive systems require more than
  10 inches additional clearance.

• Installation time is about 3 hours. Competitive systems require 8–12 hours for field retrofit and 4–6 hours for new installation.
