Course Date

Coming Soon

Course Length

TBD

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course Length: 3 days (8 hrs/day) or 2 days (10 hrs/day)

Review of system operations for TIER 4 Interim/Final Emissions. Identify the key exhaust emissions being regulated, the timeline for non-road emissions regulations, and the effective dates of each regulation Tier/Stage. Describe CAT solutions for TIER 4 Interim/Final NOx, Hydrocarbon and PM reduction. Summarize the need for, and strategy of, Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration and NOx After treatment reduction.

PPE Required

Participants must provide their own safety glasses, steel-toed footwear, gloves, hard hat, hearing protection, and coveralls with Hi-Visibility Markings.
