As emissions regulations continue to become more stringent than ever before, the EGR and DPF systems in your commercial fleet need professional hands for repairs and cleaning. At S.E.R. Fleet Services in Sacramento, California, we’re up to date with the latest in aftertreatment best practices and training.
What is an EGR and DPF?
The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system reduces the engine's NOx emissions by recirculating some of the exhaust gasses back into the engine. Meanwhile, the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) captures and stores the soot and ash produced by the engine's combustion process, with an automatic cleaning cycle that burns particulates every couple hundred miles. Together, these systems have become increasingly important as governments impose stricter emissions regulations in an effort to combat air pollution.
Why EGRs and DPFs Need TLC
Recent emissions regulations have made EGRs and DPFs more important than ever before. According to the EPA, heavy-duty vehicles are responsible for nearly 25% of all transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions in the US. New regulations mandate that heavy-duty trucks reduce emissions of particulate matter and nitrogen oxide by up to 90%, with a goal of reducing the trucking industry’s emissions by 48% in 2045.
If your EGR or DPF are clogged up, not working as they should be, or suffering from any other number of problems, you will need to get them fixed ASAP. An annual DOT or 90-day BIT inspection could bring you a whole world of unplanned downtime or financial penalties.

How can regular maintenance improve an EGR system's performance?
Routine maintenance like cleaning the EGR valve and cooler, checking sensors, and using quality diesel reduces carbon buildup, ensures proper airflow, and prolongs the life of your EGR system.
