exhaust converter: 7 Powerful Solutions

Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Right Exhaust Converter

As environmental regulations tighten and vehicle performance demands increase, selecting the right exhaust converter is more critical than ever. Catman, a worldwide supplier of catalytic converters, DPF filters, and exhaust systems, offers high-quality, guaranteed products backed by efficient service and amazing value.

What Is an Exhaust Converter?

An exhaust converter, commonly known as a catalytic converter, uses precious metal catalysts to transform harmful pollutants into less harmful emissions. These devices are essential for meeting Euro 6 and upcoming emission standards and form a key part of modern emissions control systems.

How Exhaust Converters Work

The core of every exhaust converter is a monolithic ceramic substrate coated with platinum, palladium, and rhodium catalysts. Polluted exhaust gases pass through the substrate where chemical reactions convert:

Carbon monoxide (CO) into carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Hydrocarbons (HC) into water (H₂O) and CO₂.
Nitrogen oxides (NO_x) into nitrogen (N₂) and oxygen (O₂).
