The California Air Resources Board (ARB) has verified the Rypos DPF/LETRU (Level 2 Plus) diesel particulate filter, which can be used to comply with the Low-Emission Transport Refrigeration Unit (LETRU) In-Use Performance Standard on most trailer transport refrigeration units (TRU) using 2002 and older model year engines. Compliance information related to the TRU Airborne Toxic Control Measure is available at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/tru.htm The Rypos DPF/LETRU consists of active flow-through filters made out of an electrically conductive sintered metal fiber medium. It is microprocessor controlled with a backpressure control system, an electrical control circuit, and a backpressure warning indicator.
