Abstract

A DPF regeneration control device includes: a differential pressure sensor which detects a differential pressure between a front and a rear of a DPF; a DPF differential pressure setting unit which sets a DPF differential pressure generated in accordance with a total accumulated amount of soot and ash, sets a DPF differential pressure generated when an ash accumulation amount corresponds to an accumulation amount at which washing is required, as a washing request threshold, and sets a DPF differential pressure generated when the ash accumulation amount is larger than the washing request threshold such that a reduction in output is necessary, as an output reduction threshold; a washing request issuing unit which determines whether or not the DPF differential pressure has reached the washing request threshold; and an output reduction warning unit which determines whether or not the DPF differential pressure has reached the output reduction threshold.
