Diesel Emergency Power Generators encounter increasing difficulty complying with the scores of Local and Federal emissions requirements.

The standard solutions offered by the existing on-road market suppliers have proven to be maintenance intensive, and detrimental to the engines.  Standard solutions all require heat in the exhaust stream to keep excessive restriction in the after-treatment devices from derating and/or damaging the engines.

With exhaust heat being a function of engine load, Emergency Power Generators are at risk of failure, as they are typically only run during scheduled exercising, without load.

Often engines are oversized - as they are specified to support all facility loads in case of emergency - along with headroom for future expansion. The oversized engines make the facility loads during the actual outage insufficient in providing the exhaust heat required - resulting in engines unable to carry the load, which ultimately leads to engine failure.   

Rypos’ patented technology enables the Active Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to maintain low back-pressure on the engine, regardless of exhaust temperature. This allows facilities full flexibility in how they choose to operate - without concerns over the after-treatment devices damaging the Emergency Power System - while seamlessly complying with the ever-changing regulations.

The Active DPF is made from sintered metal fibers, these segmented filters are electrically regenerated (or cleaned) by heating to 700°C and incinerating the trapped soot containing toxic contaminate particles.  The system’s microprocessor control monitors filter back pressure, temperature, and elapsed time between regenerations to optimize regeneration cycles and maximize filter efficiency and generator availability.  Entirely automated, the regeneration cycle takes only three minutes and uses less than one percent of the generator’s electrical output.  Rypos` segmented filter design makes this rapid, extremely energy efficient cleaning possible.  By limiting each cycle to a single filter element, regeneration can be performed quickly with no impact on power availability from the generator.  The built-in control system tracks which segments recently have been cleaned and schedules which ones are due to be cleaned.

The Active DPF systems can also be configured with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to achieve NOx reductions of 95% or more.
