Bosch Emission Systems Modular exhaust-gas system for on- and o-highway application

Modular exhaust-gas system

From 2014 on there will be more stringent emission limits for o-highway engines. Compared with the rst emission regulations, particulate and nitrogen oxide emissions from engines between 130 and 560 kW, for instance, will be reduced by more than 90%. Since the introduction of level 3b/Tier 4 interim in 2011, it has already become impossible to comply with the limits just by implementing internal engine measures. These limits require complex exhaust-gas treatment technology. BESG has developed a modular exhaust-gas system for applications like these in engines up to 560 kW.

Customer benets Enables compliance with next stage of emission regulations, Tier 4 final and Euro VI Individual solutions due to modular system design Flexible installation even in the most complex spaces High robustness and long service life Short development time Validation with little eort Reduced tooling costs

It consists of a heater stage, a particulate lter as well as nitrogen-oxide reduction by AdBlue/DEF dosing and an SCR catalytic converter. System control and monitoring of the required sensors can be carried out by a separate control unit or integrated into an existing control unit. For engines exceeding 560 kW, BESG develops and manufactures individual solutions to meet customer requirements. Development time, validation expenses and tooling costs are reduced by consequent use of modern simulation and design tools combined with

Bosch Emission Systems GmbH & Co. KG (BESG) is a Bosch aliate which oers engineering services to vehicle and engine manufacturers in the on-highway and o-highway sectors as well as for marine applications. These services include the design and calibration of exhaust-gas treatment systems as well as support for certication. Apart from the manufacturing and supply of these certied power packs, BESG also oers engine manufacturers the professional integration of the exhaust-gas treatment systems into the vehicle or machine as a service.

the use of standardized components. The modular exhaust-gas system is individually adapted to the available installation space of the particular vehicle or machine. Particularly in the o-highway sector, diesel engines are often operated under extreme conditions. Massive temperature uctuations or high mechanical stress caused by vibration make high demands on the exhaust-gas system. During development these conditions were considered as thoroughly as the requirement for long service life, robustness and unrestricted function throughout the program map.

The particulate lter (DPF) consists of a ceramic substrate and lters out the soot particles which are generated during fuel combustion in the diesel engine. The DPF is regenerated by increasing the exhaust-gas temperature above 600C to burn o the stored soot particles. This can either be achieved by internal engine measures, or by heating the exhaust-gas stream by injecting diesel fuel which is then oxidized in the oxidation catalytic converter. Alternatively the DPF can be regenerated continuously. This variant burns o the particles using NO2 which, among other things, is generated in the oxidation catalytic converter upstream of the DPF. The generation of NO2 requires an exhaust-gas temperature of at least 320C. The nitrogen oxides (NOx) contained in the exhaust
