Filter Screen (DEF) - Clean/Replace
Y Sediment Strainer and Mesh Buttons
Y Sediment Strainer
The Y Sediment Strainer removes impurities from the DEF before traveling through the dosing cabinet system. The strainer is equipped with a 60 micron screen and has two button strainers at the outlet of the Y sediment strainer. The bottom cap of the strainer screws off and on for maintenance of the metal screen.
Perform the following steps to clear the strainer of debris:
- Turn the dosing cabinets circuit breakers to the off position.
- Close the ball valve on the side of the dosing cabinet to the off position.
- Locate a shallow container to capture the DEF in the strainer.
- Unscrew the strainers bottom cap.
- Let the strainer bottom cap and used DEF fall into the container.
- Inspect strainer screen for imperfections
- Rinse strainer in lukewarm water.
- Replace strainer in reverse order.
Regular maintenance of the 60 micron screen will detour maintenance needs for the button strainers.
