Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009081072A2] The invention relates to an assembly formed by a device for detecting radial cracks in a particulate filter of the honeycomb type, the filtering part of which is made of a porous inorganic material, said particulate filter comprising a single monolith or being obtained by the combination of a number of monoliths, the device being characterized in that it comprises an electrically conductive material placed in the form of a strip or wire on at least one longitudinal part of the filter, fastened to a monolith and/or to the coating cement or sealing cement, and having an electrical conductivity higher than the electrical conductivity of the material constituting that part of the filter to which it is fastened, and having a strength not exceeding the strength of the constituent material of that part of the filter to which it is fastened, together with means for measuring the conductivity or the electrical resistance of the strip or wire of electrically conductive material.
