DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID

---

•  H2Charge Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a non-toxic, stable and a colorless solution. It’s for use as a consumable in vehicles through Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to meet EPA emissions standards for diesel engines. 
• H2Charge Lowers NOx gases in diesel exhaust emissions 
• H2Charge is a highly pure solution that ensures the vehicle is performing at maximum efficiency 
• H2Charge DEF helps avoid damage and/or clogging in the catalytic converter and prevent loss of warranty coverage provided by the manufacturer. 
• H2Charge DEF aids in achieving maximum vehicle performance 
• H2Charge DEF aids in achieving maximum vehicle efficiency. 
• H2Charge’s purity and composition ensures your vehicle meets North American emissions standards 

What is DEF? 

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a solution of high purity urea (32.5%) and de-ionized water (67.5%). It is the operating fluid required in vehicles using Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. Engineers developed the technology to meet the 2010 emission standards for reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) exhaust emissions from diesel engines. 

The fluid is contained in a designated DEF tank and it is sprayed into the exhaust system before the catalytic converter breaks down NOx into harmless nitrogen and water vapor. 

DEF has a shelf life of 12 months if the required storage conditions are followed. However, DEF that has been stowed for a longer period may be usable if analyzed to confirm that it still meets the DEF specification. Storage facilities can be adapted to suit customer needs 

SCR Technology? 

SCR Technology Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is a new technology which leading North American heavy duty diesel engine makers adopted after testing various technologies intended for reducing emission levels to the required EPA standards. 

SCR technology achieves the reduction of exhaust fume emissions required, and allows for maximum engine operation in terms of performance and fuel economy. 

The use of H2Charge DEF is the most effective way to take full advantage of SCR technology and to protect engine systems from the possibility of gradual degradation or clogging due to contamination. It also helps to prevent the loss of efficiency, costly parts replacement and engine downtime. 

How does SCR work? 

SCR technology reduces the concentration of nitrogen oxide (NOx) gases that are produced inside the engine during combustion. This process requires the right amount of H2Charge DEF to be injected into the exhaust stream. Upon mixing with exhaust gases, it is hydrolyzed before the catalytic converter breaks down nitrogen oxide (NOx) into harmless nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O).
