Abstract:
A clogging detection device includes a urea water sensor which detects temperature in a urea water tank, a pressure sensor which detects pressure in a urea water feed line, an exhaust gas temperature sensor disposed in an exhaust pipe upstream of a selective catalytic reduction device, and a determination unit. When a key switch is turned on, the determination unit performs a startup control to drive a supply pump and increase the pressure in a pipe segment extending to a dosing value. If a detection value of the exhaust gas temperature sensor is no greater than a predetermined temperature, and a detection value of the urea water sensor is no smaller than a freezing temperature, then the determination unit performs emptying control for returning the urea water from the pipe segment to the urea water tank to detect clogging of the pipe segment from the detection value of the pressure sensor.
