The LNF Muffler offers vehicle and fleet owners the most cost effective DPF solution for vehicles with sufficient duty cycles to permit a passive DPF solution. The SEF Muffler System offers fleets an active solution for vehicles that don't have sufficient duty cycles for passive regeneration. The SEF Muffler System is especially designed for fleet vehicles that return home every night and can "plug-in" their equipment for DPF regeneration. "We believe that these technologies will outperform competing systems, showcasing Donaldson's superior engineering which vehicle and equipment OEMs value," says Schmidt.
