Injector: Control post

D. Operation process
When the differential pressure sensor detects the pressure difference between the front and the rear
side of CDPF, the sensor sends signal indicating the soot is accumulated and the post injection is
performed to raise the temperature of exhaust gas. The amount of fuel injected is determined according
to the temperature of exhaust gas detected by the rear temperature sensor. If the temperature is below
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is increased to raise the tem
perature. If the temperature is over
600°C, the amount of fuel injected is decreased or not controlled. When the engine is running in
low load range, the amount of post injection and the amount of intake air are controlled. It is to raise the
temperature by increasing the amount of fuel while decreasing the amount of intake air.

E. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil) ▶
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
Issue with normal engine oil ▶
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block
the filter. -
Benefit for specified engine oil ▶
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
Problems when using unspecified engine oil ▶
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc. *

1. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1) Cleanliness and Care
An automobile engine is a combination of many machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with
tolerances that are measured in the ten-thousanths of an inch.
When any internal engine parts are serviced, care and cleanliness are important.
A liberal coating of enigne oil should be applied to friction areas during assembly, to protect and lubricate
the surfaces on initial operation. Proper cleaning and protection of machined surfaces and friction areas
is part of the repair procedure.
This is considered standard shop practice even if not specifically stated.
Whenever valve train components are removed for service, they should be kept in order. They should be
installed in the same locations, and with the same mating surfaces, as when they were removed.
Battery cables should be disconnected before any major work is performed on the engine. Failure to
disconnect cables may result in damage to wire harness or other electrical parts.

2) On-engine Service
Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit, or when a
tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals.
Disconnecting this cable will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition
must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted. -
Any time the air cleaner is removed, the intake opening should be covered. This will protect
against accidental entrance of foreign material, which could follow the intake passage into the
cylinder and cause extensive damage when the engine is started. -
