As is the case for the majority of the diesel products sold on Tamerx Diesel Products, your part's warranty is active as soon as you install it. In some other cases, warranty activation is contingent upon you sending us your core (i.e., your old part). Tamerx Diesel Products will provide you a return shipping label for parts that have a warranty with a core return condition. When we have received your core return, the part's warranty coverage begins. We reserve the right to void the product warranty if your core is not received within the allotted time, or if it isn't received at all. If the warranty for the diesel part you are purchasing has a core return requirement, it will be clearly noted on the product detail page/item listing.
What is a Core Charge?
A core charge (also called "core deposit") is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda and is a standard requirement in the auto parts industry. For example, in many states, to promote recycling, you pay a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have a core charge, or core price, that works in essentially the same way as a soda can deposit.
30 Day Core Charge Hold
You authorize Tamerx Diesel Products, to hold your credit card for the specified core charge amount and that you agree to return your core with 30 days of receiving the purchased part. When we have received your core return, the hold is released and the core charge payment is canceled.
The customer, or parts buyer, is responsible for any shipping costs associated with core returns unless otherwise specified in the product listing/detail page. Tamerx Diesel Products offers prepaid UPS shipping labels (SKU numbers UPS-CR1 and UPS-CR2) for use in returning your core that are available for purchase on our website during your shopping/order process.
The shipping label you will need to use for the core return is dependent upon what part you are purchasing. UPS-CR1 is good for cores weighing up to 20 pounds. UPS-CR2 is appropriate for shipping cores weighing 21 pounds or more. You must include enough information with the core return that clearly identifies it as a.) a Core Return, and b.) contains enough information we can use to clearly associate the core return with your order. Including a copy of the invoice or packing slip that came with the original shipment, clearly marked "Core Return", is ideal. Alternately, you can include a note marked as "Core Return" that includes your order number, full name and address, and phone number or other contact information. Failure to include this information with your returned core will most likely delay any due core credit being issued and/or delay any applicable warranty activation. Core returns need to be for the exact part purchased and cannot be damaged. Substituting another part in place of the part you have purchased is not acceptable.
All fluids must be drained.
If you have purchased a set or a parts package, you will need to return cores for all components of the set. For example, if you have purchaed a high pressure oil pump with an IPR valve, you will need to return both HPOP and IPR valve cores to receive proper credit. If you have purchased an EGR cooler/EGR valve package, your core return must consist of an EGR cooler core and an EGR valve core, or core credit will not be given.
Core Charges are often mandated by state legislature, and, as such, the actual core charge and taxes on the charge may vary depending on the state in which you buy your part. The Tamerx Diesel Products core charge presented to you online today with your item is representative of the most common core charge.

The Cummins X15 SCR Filter (OEM 5509689) plays a central role in keeping your engine’s emissions system working as intended. Designed for 2018–2024 models, this component is part of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system, which is responsible for treating exhaust gases before they exit the vehicle.
By working alongside Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), the SCR filter enables the conversion of harmful nitrogen oxides (NOx) into safer byproducts like nitrogen and water vapor. This process is essential for meeting today’s strict emissions requirements and avoiding regulatory issues.
Here’s a closer look at why this filter is so important:
- Controls harmful emissions at the source
- The SCR filter actively supports the chemical reaction that breaks down NOx gases, helping reduce the environmental impact of diesel engines.
- Maintains proper aftertreatment system function
- It works in coordination with sensors, DEF injectors, and other components to ensure the exhaust system operates smoothly and efficiently.
- Helps prevent engine derate situations
- A clogged or failing SCR filter can trigger fault codes that limit engine output, potentially affecting job timelines and productivity.
- Protects surrounding components from excessive buildup
- By managing exhaust flow and filtration, it helps reduce the risk of contamination affecting other parts of the system.
- Supports long-term system reliability
- When properly maintained, the SCR filter contributes to consistent operation and fewer unexpected service interruptions.
Overall, the Cummins 5509689 SCR filter is essential not just for emissions compliance, but for keeping your equipment dependable and running without unnecessary complications.
When an SCR filter begins to fail, it’s important to respond quickly before the issue spreads to other components in the emissions system. What may start as a minor restriction or sensor fault can escalate into costly repairs or extended downtime if left unaddressed.
The key is to diagnose and correct the underlying cause, not just the symptom. SCR failures are often connected to fluid quality, operating habits, or related engine concerns that place extra strain on the system.
Here are the steps you should take:
- Verify DEF quality and level
- Make sure the Diesel Exhaust Fluid is clean, uncontaminated, and meets ISO standards. Poor-quality DEF can crystallize inside the system, leading to clogs and improper chemical reactions.
- Inspect for DEF crystallization or buildup
- Look for white, chalky residue around injectors, lines, or inside the filter housing. This buildup can restrict flow and prevent the system from functioning correctly.
- Run a full diagnostic scan
- Use a scan tool to check for fault codes related to sensors, dosing modules, or temperature readings. These codes help identify whether the issue is mechanical or electronic.
- Check for underlying engine problems
- Excess soot or unburned fuel entering the exhaust can overload the SCR system. Addressing injector issues, EGR faults, or combustion inefficiencies is critical.
- Evaluate cleaning versus replacement
- If the filter is only partially restricted, professional cleaning may restore function. However, severe contamination or internal damage typically requires replacement.
Taking these steps early can help restore proper operation and prevent repeated failures. A proactive approach keeps your emissions system running reliably and reduces the risk of unexpected interruptions.
A restricted filter can lead to exhaust flow issues and emissions system warnings.
Using the correct OEM number ensures proper compatibility with the Cummins X15 aftertreatment system.
