Working Principle of Mini Catalizador's Catalytic Converter Technology

Built-in Mini Catalytic Converter:
The core of the Mini Catalizador lies in its integrated mini catalytic converter, a unique design that incorporates catalytic conversion functionality within a compact space.
This mini catalytic converter features 400 cells, effectively meeting Euro 5 emission standards and demonstrating its high efficiency.

Working Principle of Mini Catalizador's Catalytic Converter Technology

Similar Working Principle to Traditional Catalytic Converters:
The mini catalytic converter in the Mini Catalizador operates similarly to traditional catalytic converters.
Through its internal ceramic honeycomb structure coated with precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, it catalytically converts harmful exhaust gases.
These precious metals act as catalysts, enabling chemical reactions that transform harmful substances such as nitrogen oxides, unburned hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen gas.

Adjusting the O2 Sensor Position:
In addition to converting harmful emissions, Mini Catalizador adjusts the position of the O2 sensor, preventing it from being directly exposed to high-temperature, high-speed exhaust flows.
This design protects the O2 sensor from damage and allows it to read "clean" exhaust data post-conversion, sending accurate signals to the Engine Control Unit (ECU).

Tricking the ECU to Maintain Normal Operation:
By simulating the normal functionality of a traditional catalytic converter, Mini Catalizador "tricks" the ECU into believing the catalytic converter is functioning properly.
This effectively resolves issues such as the Check Engine Light (CEL) triggered by the installation of high-flow catalytic converters or the removal of the original catalytic converter, avoiding the vehicle from entering limp mode.

Materials and Design:
Mini Catalizador is made from high-quality T-304 stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature tolerance, ensuring long-term reliability and durability.
The product design accommodates multiple installation angles (0°, 45°, 90°), making it adaptable to different vehicle exhaust system layouts.

Simple and Quick Installation Process:
The installation of Mini Catalizador is straightforward and quick, requiring no welding or electrical modifications.
It simply connects to the existing O2 sensor and is reinstalled into the exhaust system.
This user-friendly design allows vehicle owners to easily install or remove it themselves, significantly reducing maintenance costs and time.

Broad Compatibility:
Mini Catalizador is compatible with most vehicles equipped with M18 x 1.5mm O2 sensor ports, covering 99% of models on the market.
Whether it’s a turbocharged or non-turbocharged vehicle, a high-performance modified car, or a daily driver, Mini Catalizador provides an effective solution.
