Diesel Particulate Matter Testing | Accurate Emission Monitoring by Mammoth

Overview

Why Diesel Particulate Matter Testing?

Reliable monitoring of Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) emissions is crucial for environmental compliance, maintenance, and safety. Our DPM testing solutions help you effectively track emissions, ensuring your Risk-Based Hygiene Management process reduces exposure, protects health, minimizes repair costs, and meets emissions management standards.

Benefits

Data Logging of Results
Our DPM testing system records vehicle and section details along with test results, building a valuable repository of historical data. Accessible via USB or Wi-Fi, this data helps reduce manual notetaking, saving time and improving data integrity.
Accurate Measurement
The DPM-RT uses advanced laser light-scattering technology to provide accurate particulate mass measurements in a reliable, all-in-one instrument.
Rapid Results
Pre-programmed to measure emissions in as little as one minute, the DPM-RT provides real-time data during Stall or Free Acceleration Tests, enabling quick decision-making.
Simple Operation
With automated sampling operations and a user-friendly touchscreen, the DPM-RT is easy to use after minimal training, making it an ideal everyday tool for maintenance personnel.

Thermal Assessment Capabilities

In Q1 2022 a North American Gold Mine had a fire event on site. To mitigate the risks of fires from occurring, the site’s mobile maintenance team engaged Mammoth to carry out thermal audits across their Load, Haul and Ancillary fleet.
The deliverables included; identifying potential fire risks and recommending controls to reduce touch surface temperatures below the flash point of flammable fluids.

Sound Attenuation

Komatsu 930E grid box and exhaust attenuation

The client operated an open cut coal mine in NSW. The sound power target for its fleet of Komatsu 930E trucks was set at 120 dB(A) to meet the boundary noise requirements. The current noise level was recorded at 124 dB(A), 4 dB(A) louder than the prescribed limits.

Sound Attenuation

Hitachi EH5000 Sound Suppressed Exhaust System

A site running Hitachi EH5000 trucks that were fitted with standard sound suppression mufflers was having issues with them due to high back pressure, cracking and falling apart prematurely. The current mufflers were not meeting the sound reduction requirements the site was seeking to achieve. The client was exceeding boundary noise limits due to upscaling of fleet size and required noise reduction to be achieved on existing trucks to continue mining at night.
