Standard Ignition DPS116 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Pressure Sensor

Overview of Standard Ignition DPS116 DPF Pressure Sensor

The Standard Ignition DPS116 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Pressure Sensor is designed for precise monitoring of exhaust backpressure in diesel engines. Specifically engineered for Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty models, this sensor ensures accurate data for optimal emission control system performance.

• Compatible with Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty diesel trucks
• O.E.M. replacement part for direct system type
• Oval connector shape with 3 terminals for secure electrical connection
• Designed for diesel fuel systems
• Part number DPS116 for easy identification and ordering

Technical Details and Attributes

The DPS116 sensor features an oval-shaped connector with three terminals, providing a reliable interface with the vehicle’s emission control system. It is built for direct system type applications, ensuring compatibility with the original equipment manufacturer (O.E.M.) specifications. This sensor is specifically calibrated for diesel fuel systems, making it suitable for heavy-duty Ford trucks that require precise particulate filter pressure monitoring.

Function and Application

This Diesel Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor is critical for monitoring the pressure differential across the DPF, enabling the engine control module to regulate regeneration cycles and maintain emission standards. It addresses several common issues, including:

• Inaccurate DPF pressure readings causing regeneration failures
• Check engine light triggered by faulty pressure sensor signals
• Reduced engine performance due to improper emission control feedback
• Increased exhaust emissions from malfunctioning DPF system
• Potential damage to the diesel particulate filter from incorrect pressure data

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Standard Ignition DPS116 sensor, ensure the vehicle is turned off and cooled down to avoid injury. Verify the oval connector aligns correctly with the vehicle harness and that all three terminals are securely connected. It is recommended to inspect the DPF housing and surrounding components for damage or debris before installation. Proper torque specifications should be followed to prevent sensor damage or leaks.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Standard Ignition parts are manufactured to meet or exceed O.E.M. standards, providing reliable performance and durability. The DPS116 sensor undergoes rigorous testing to ensure accurate pressure readings and long service life. This part includes a limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, supporting confidence in its quality and fitment for Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty diesel trucks.
