Cleaner Exhaust Flow: Cummins ISM / ISL DPF (2008–2010)
What is it?
The Cummins ISM / ISL DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) for model years 2008–2010 is an emissions component that captures soot and particulate matter from engine exhaust. It helps keep exhaust flow clean and prevents clogging of downstream exhaust parts.
Why choose this DPF?
This filter is engineered specifically for ISM and ISL engines in the 2008–2010 range to provide effective filtration while maintaining proper exhaust pressure. Choosing the correct DPF helps avoid issues such as excessive backpressure, forced regenerations, or diagnostic faults associated with mismatched or lower-quality parts.
Key Benefits
✅ Optimized for Cummins ISM & ISL engines (2008–2010)
✅ Traps soot and fine particles to protect exhaust integrity
✅ Helps reduce derates, error codes, and system stress
✅ Built to endure high exhaust temperatures and extended duty
✅ Direct-fit design makes installation straightforward
Applications
This DPF is ideal for trucks, industrial equipment, and other machinery powered by ISM or ISL engines manufactured between 2008 and 2010. It ensures lasting performance under demanding operating conditions.
Installation Notes
Ensure the engine and exhaust system are fully cooled before beginning. Remove the old filter and inspect adjacent piping, sensors, and seals for wear or damage. Install the new DPF with fresh gaskets, torque mounting hardware to Cummins’ specifications, and confirm sealing. After installation, clear any stored fault codes and run a regeneration or drive cycle to verify correct system operation.
Final Thoughts
When your Cummins ISM or ISL engine needs dependable particulate filtration, this DPF delivers the durability, correct fit, and cleaning capability required to keep your exhaust system working smoothly.
