CPK Automotive, a member of the Heinzmann Group since October 2013, and a supplier of systems for monitoring and controlling the after treatment of engine exhaust gases, has developed and markets the tried and tested Dyntest Bus System. This system enables the electronic control and monitoring of components such as diesel particulate filters or Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems.

The ControlBox is the central means of control in the reliable Bus System and can operate with just about any make or type of engine and exhaust system installed in the vehicle. It also allows you to use any type of fuel additive.

The ControlBox monitors, measures, logs and controls the diesel particulate filter. It triggers an alarm if it detects error messages, and stores the collected data.

The 2 alarm inputs and 3 outputs guarantee smooth and efficient communication. Besides back pressure, exhaust gas temperatures and engine revs, up to 7 further parameters can be monitored and logged. The parameterization functions are managed on a PC by the system software.

The ControlBox is designed as an OEM and retrofit solution. Both On-Road and Off-Road applications are possible. It can be installed, for example, in:

• Buses, heavy-duty vehicles and construction equipment
• Generators
• Ships, and
• Locomotives.

Advantages of the CPK Automotive ControlBox:

• Prevents damage to engines and filters
• Controls active regeneration and alarm systems
• Tried and tested values have been adopted as the default system settings
• Robust and reliable
• Works with just about any type of engine
• Simple 'plug and play' operation
• Adaptable diagnostic/analytical tool, and
• Evaluation of data collected over extensive periods.

As well as the ControlBox, CPK Automotive can supply a variety of modules and accessories to facilitate the flexible extension of its DYNTEST System.

CPK Automotive has for many years specialised in the development of environmental solutions, chiefly in the field of automotive technology. Today, the main business is the development and production of systems for monitoring and controlling the after-treatment of engine exhaust gases. CPK's business strategy is to concentrate on developing devices that can be retrofitted to diesel engines.
