Cummins introduces a revolutionary clean air solution for all our Diesel Genset Customers. The Retrofit Emission Control Device (RECD) is designed based on filter-less technology by utilizing Electrostatic Precipitation fundamentals. It is highly efficient in improving air quality and can capture Particulate Matter Carbon from polluting the air with more than 70% efficiency. These RECDs custom designed for Cummins Gensets are compliant with the National Green Tribunal order O.A 681/2018. So get your RECD today and join Cummins in making a positive impact on the environment!

Salient features

  • Energy efficient as requires no active regeneration. No dependency on exhaust temperature.
  • Robustness to wide variety and conditions of in-use DG sets. Remote installation possible
  • Unmatched and minimal flow restriction compared to conventional filter based technologies.
  • No additional fuel consumption penalty.
  • On board diagnostics and telematics solution (IoT) with cloud based push notifications for users
  • Separated particulate matter can be collected and used as a high value raw material in paint, dye and plastics industry hence no disposal requirements or secondary pollution
  • Simple, efficient and robust design that gives consistent performance and long operational life.
  • All weather proof and low maintenance designs

Electrostatic Precipitator Technology 80%-90% Moderate Negligible None Negligible & control parameter Easy service Yes

Working Principle

  • The RECD is installed after the DG exhaust (muffler/silencer). No modification to the exhaust is required.
  • Flue gas enters the RECD and is confronted with Corona discharge.
  • Due to the contact with high voltage, the surface charge of the PM is nullified and PM gets attracted to electrodes of opposite charge
  • The PM gets agglomerated and the size of the PM increases beyond PM10 (10 microns).
  • This agglomerated PM is collected in powder form and is available for environmentally safe disposal/reuse.
