The Basics Of Catalytic Converters

Together with the Oxygen Sensors and other Engine Management components, the catalytic converter is a passive after-treatment device designed to reduce engine-out emission levels to meet an acceptable standard. This Emissions System works to reduce harmful emissions at the tail pipe. The catalytic converter contains two or more ceramic substrates, coated with a combination of Platinum, Palladium and Rhodium and a Ceria based wash coat, packed into a stainless steel housing. When placed in the right environment of heat (400°C) and proper air/fuel mixture the catalyst forces a chemical reaction reducing toxic gasses to less harmful ones.
