Cerium Tank Citroen Peugeot Opel d

The cerium tank with original code 9815712680 is a fundamental component of the exhaust gas after-treatment system for Euro 6 diesel engines of the PSA group and Opel. It serves to contain and dose the cerium-based additive used to lower the regeneration temperature of the diesel particulate filter (DPF), improving its efficiency and lifespan.

Compatible vehicles

The tank 9815712680 is installed on various vehicles of the PSA group and Opel equipped with a 1.6 BlueHDi or 1.6 CDTi diesel engine. Among the compatible models:

• Peugeot: 208, 2008, 301
• Citroën: C3, C3 Picasso, C-Elysée, C4 Cactus
• Opel: Crossland, Crossland X

It is installed on Euro 6 versions with Eolys additive system, equipped with an active particulate filter.

DIPA provides the component also in new original version, ready for installation, with warranty and compatibility on all affected models.

Technical characteristics

The tank is made of a high-strength plastic container, designed to hold specific additives such as Eolys PowerFlex. Inside, it features an electric pump for controlled liquid dispensing.

Main technical data:

• Original code: 9815712680
• Composition: plastic tank with integrated additive pump
• Installation: under the floor, near the fuel tank
• Capacity: compatible with dosages required for standard regeneration cycles
• Indicative weight: about 3 kg (empty)
• Connectors: quick coupling for additive line and electrical connection

The component is supplied new and without liquid, to be filled before installation or later according to the vehicle's technical specifications. You can purchase quality cerium from DIPA in various formats: FAPC014N and FAPC015N.

Operation and role in the system

The cerium tank functions to provide the engine control unit with the correct amount of additive to inject into the exhaust system. The cerium, mixed with fuel or dosed directly into the duct, helps lower the combustion temperature of soot, facilitating the regeneration of the particulate filter even under urban driving conditions or low load driving.

The system is managed by the additive control unit and synchronized with the DPF regeneration cycle.

Problems and failure symptoms

A malfunction of the cerium tank can result in:

• Error messages on the display related to the pollution system
• Inability to regenerate the particulate filter
• Check engine light on
• Additive liquid leakage from the tank body or fittings
• Errors recorded in the engine control unit related to additive dosing

DIPA suggests: In the presence of these symptoms, it is necessary to check the integrity of the pump, the pipes, and the condition of the residual additive.

Conclusion

The cerium tank OE 9815712680 is essential for the proper functioning of the after-treatment system of PSA and Opel diesel engines. Proper dosing of the additive ensures the regeneration of the DPF, compliance with anti-pollution regulations, and the longevity of the system.
