Risk of Using Non Genuine Parts
Non-genuine parts are designed using reverse engineering (copying an original component). Manufacturers of non-genuine parts do not have access to Perkins technical data and drawings so these parts are designed and manufactured in isolation from the rest of the engine.
In most cases the material specification is rationalised, so there is a real risk that these parts will not fit correctly. This can result in rapid wear, compromised performance, poor reliability, higher oil and fuel consumption and even component damage or engine failure.
Suppliers of non-genuine parts will only provide a small range of the high-volume part numbers. They will not support the complete Perkins engine range and will not be covered by the Powerpart warranty.
Why Use Genuine Parts?
Powerpart components are designed to work together to maximise component life and engine performance.
Powerpart parts are designed to match the individual engine characteristics across the whole Perkins engine range, to fit first time and saving on costly downtime.
Powerpart parts restore optimum power and fuel efficiency and are supported by thePerkins Powerpart Warranty.

Catalytic Converters for off-Road (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)
Specifically designed for the rugged demands of heavy-duty off-road vehicles, the MINE-X® catalytic converter helps to improve workplace environmental health and provides compliance with most local regulations requiring anexhaust purifier or exhaust scrubber.
Catalytic Mufflers for off-Road (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)
The MINE-X® catalytic muffler is designed to replace the original equipment (OE) muffler. The product is installed by simply removing the original muffler and installing the catalytic muffler in its place, utilizing the same pipe connections, mounting points, brackets, straps, etc. The product looks exactly the same as the original muffler and provides the same sound attenuation.
Catalytic Converters and Silencers for Stationary Engines (Below 700hp, Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)
Ideal for small and medium sized stationary engines, MINE-X® catalytic converters effectively reduce engine exhaust emissions, including NOx, CO, hydrocarbons, formaldehydes and particulates. MINE-X® catalytic converters are the industry standard for reliable, long life operation.
Catalytic Converters and Silencers for Stationary Engines (Above 700hp, Diesel Oxidation Catalyst)
QUICK-LID® catalytic converters effectively reduce engine exhaust emissions, including NOx, CO, hydrocarbons, formaldehydes and particulates. QUICK-LID® catalytic converters are the industry standard for reliable, long life operation.
Diesel Particulate Filter – Flow-Through
The MINE-X®Flow-Through Filter is a revolutionary patent pending, flow-through particulate filter that provides effective removal of diesel particulate matter and lower backpressure than conventional wall-flow particulate filters.
Wall-Flow Diesel Particulate Filters
Description
DCL’s CARB verified DPF’s (brand name: MINE-X SOOTFILTER®) effectively remove diesel particles and diesel fumes from diesel engine exhaust emissions.
Description
DCL’s diesel particulate filters are used to meet MSHA standards for particulate matter in underground mines, EPA or CARB mandated standards for particulate emissions in diesel vehicle retrofits, or simply to improve the air quality in a work site containing diesel engines.
See chart for emission control characteristics of DCL’s diesel particulate filters.
For assistance with sizing and selection of the right diesel particulate filter for your needs, contact a DCL applications engineer.
Features
- Heavy gauge stainless steel construction.
- Replaces the OEM muffler in most vehicles and includes customized exhaust tube or pipe connections
- Cordierite or silicone carbide wall flow filter media
- Quick release clamps for removal of the filter center body Back-pressure monitor with operator indicator light
Applications
- Our diesel particulate filters work best in post-1994 model year on-road diesel engines, and Tier 1 and higher off-road engines, including construction and mining vehicles, stationary engines and on-road trucks and buses.

Flow Through Particulate Filter
Diesel Particulate Filter (Flow-Through)
Description
The MINE-X®Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filter is a revolutionary patent pending, flow-through particulate filter that provides effective removal of diesel particulate matter and lower backpressure than conventional wall-flow particulate filters. DCL flow-through, particulate filters are used to meet EPA or CARB standards for particulate reduction or simply to improve air quality around diesel engines. The MINE-X® Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filterremoves up to 60% Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) and requires diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 500 ppm and works best with sulfur content less than 15 ppm (ULSD).
For assistance with sizing and selection of the right catalytic silencer for your needs, contact a DCL applications engineer.
Features
- Heavy gauge stainless steel construction.
- An alternating tapered network of flow through channels consisting of corrugated metal foils and metal fibre fleece
- Can be configured to exactly the same dimensions as the original vehicle muffler
- Can be configured as a universal catalyst or a universal muffler for retrofit onto the vehicle
- Installs and operates like a conventional Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)
Applications
The MINE-X® Flow-Through Diesel Particulate Filter can be used in aboveground diesel engine applications. It is ideal for retrofit on diesel engines where a wall-flow particulate filter is unsuitable, including light duty cycle, older and two-stroke engines.
Harvard Fleet Management Services, in conjunction with the Harvard Green Campus Initiative, is conducting a trial of the MINE-X®, flow-through DPF.

Product Literature
Altronic By-Fuels
Bi-Fuel System
The GTI Bi-Fuel System manufactured by Altronic offers an affordable and efficient means of operating industrial diesel engines utilizing both diesel and natural gas (or other available gas) as fuel sources. This innovative, patented system, which requires no modification to the internal components of the engine, allows for operation on natural gas up to a maximum of 70%* of the fuel required to maintain the desired speed and load. Reduced exhaust emissions and fuel costs are just a few of the benefits of Bi-Fuel operation.
The GTI Bi-Fuel System operates by blending both diesel fuel and natural gas in the combustion chamber. This is achieved using a fumigated gas-charge design, whereby natural gas is pre-mixed with engine intake-air and delivered to the combustion chamber via the air-intake valve. The air-gas mixture is ignited when the diesel injector sprays a reduced quantity of diesel fuel into the chamber.
This diesel “pilot” acts as the ignition source for the primary air-gas combustible mixture. Because the Bi-Fuel System utilizes the OEM air-intake and diesel injection systems, no internal engine modifications are required for installation.
*Subject to gas quality and other application conditions.
ADVANTAGES OF BI-FUEL
Converts industrial diesel engines to Bi-Fuel operation by substituting up to 70% natural gas for diesel fuel
Save on operating fuel costs by using natural gas with return to 100% diesel operation at any time
Allows the use of available or interruptible gas supplies
No modification to internal engine components is required
Cleaner burning natural gas reduces exhaust emissions
Reduces requirements for on-site fuel storage
Unique, patented design ensures no loss of power or efficiency
Low cost and easy to install
