AMTAST Hand Held DEF AdBlue Refractometer Tester for Urea Concentration in Diesel Exhaust Fluid Aqueous Urea Solution with ATC

Product Information

Often rebranded ‘Automotive urea solution’ to eliminate the risk of prosecution by trading standards (as a mix of less than 31.8% urea cannot be labelled AdBlue). Victims of this weaker concentration may not be able to seek compensation under the Trades Description Act. The OPTi refractometer is specifically recommended for use where large numbers of AdBlue® tests are to be made by more than one person and in a short amount of time. These environments include vehicle hire reception areas, fleet haulage yards, municipal depots and the like. Oil in Water Test Strips

AdBlue or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a solution of 32.5% Urea in de-ionised water. It is sprayed into the exhaust system of modern engines as part of a selective catalytic reduction system (SCR) to reduce NOx (nitrogen oxides) emissions from the exhaust that cause acid rain and lung problems. How is NOx made that Adblue removes? Toepassingen: Alle voertuigen met dieselmotoren die een ureum-oplossing van 32,5% gebruiken als dieseluitlaatvloeistof (AdBlue®) Moderne dieselemissiesystemen zijn voorzien van technologie die ontwikkeld is om de uitlaatemissies te zuiveren terwijl de uitlaatgassen door de uitlaat gaan. Een van de populairste systemen maakt gebruik van een ureum-oplossing, zoals AdBlue®, die in de uitlaat wordt gespoten voor de katalysator om de stikstofoxiden die uit de motor komen om te zetten in stikstof en water. Wanneer deze systemen niet werken, gaat de motor aanvankelijk over op “thuisbrengmodus” en als het probleem niet wordt verholpen, kan het OBD-systeem van het voertuig voorkomen dat het voertuig wordt gestart. Als onderdeel van de diagnostische routine van deze SCR (AdBlue®-injectie) systemen wordt de druk in het systeem zowel elektronisch via de OBD-software en protocollen als dynamisch gemeten met behulp van manometers. De Laser 8060 bestaat uit een manometer en aansluitslangen waarmee de gebruiker de systeemdruk direct bij de verstuiver (doseermodule) of pomp kan meten. AdBlue®, a water/urea based operating fluid, is stored in a tank (like diesel fuel), however, unlike fuel it is not injected into the engine, but directly into a specially modified part of the vehicle’s exhaust. This begins a chemical reaction which removes the polluting oxides of nitrogen (NOx), converting them into harmless water and nitrogen in a process known as Selective Catalytic Reduction, or SCR for short. SCR is only applicable to diesel engines and the more economically you drive, typically, the less AdBlue® you will use.Adblue is one of two commonly used methods to reduce NOx emissions as part of a SCR. The other being Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR) systems that recirculate the exhaust gases with lower oxygen content to reduce peak cylinder temperatures and hence NOx production, but this requires strict maintenance of diesel particulate filters as less oxygen means more un-burnt fuel. In some engines both technologies are used to achieve the ever tightening emission standards. How does Adblue work to remove NOx? Hinweis: Nach dem Gebrauch das Messgerät und die Schläuche/Anschlüsse stets mit klarem Wasser reinigen, um zu verhindern, dass Harnstoffablagerungen entstehen.

Applications: all vehicles fitted with diesel engines using a Urea solution at 32.5% as a diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue®).Your Volkswagen car is fitted with an advanced emissions control system, which helps your vehicle meet the latest Euro 6 exhaust gas regulations. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) using AdBlue® x 300 mm transparante gevlochten aansluitslangen – met rechte en haakse 6,3 mm snelkoppelingen voor aansluiting op het SCR-systeem in kleine ruimtes en om de vloeistofkleur, etc. te kunnen zien. Adblue works by decomposing to Ammonia and Carbon dioxide at high temperatures of the exhaust. The Ammonia (NH3) in the presence of oxygen (O2) in the air plus the catalyst forms Nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O). How can Bellingham + Stanley help you measure DEF easily and effectively? Reducing Environmental Pollution Your Volkswagen car is fitted with an advanced emissions control system, which helps your vehicle meet the latest Euro 6 exhaust gas regulations. How does the system work?

Opmerking: maak de manometer en slang na gebruik schoon met water om te voorkomen dat er ureum achterblijft. Escalating urea prices have driven the cost of operating an SCR higher than ever before. Regretfully this has led to a new wave of problems where supplies of diluted AdBlue have found their way into the market. Thanks for your replies. The car has done 200.000 KM and it has had the AdBlue tank/pump replaced and the new vented filler cap. Modern diesel engines run with a lean fuel to air ratio, which reduces un-burnt fuel being sent out the exhaust. However, this also means that the heavy air laden mixture containing predominantly nitrogen at high temperatures of combustion can form NOx. We can also provide analytical testing of the raw materials from the manufacturing process as well as the final product and can offer various R&D services in regards to contamination issues and in the field problems which develop via our wide network of highly advanced laboratories. Diesel and other distillate fuels are common contaminants for AdBlue®/DEF tanks & systems and Intertek’s wide range of laboratories are also able to perform this testing should it be required.The size of the AdBlue® tank fitted to your car will vary depending on which Volkswagen model you have, therefore the interval between top-ups will vary. In addition, many factors such as mileage, journey type, driving style and environmental conditions can influence how much AdBlue® is consumed. A passenger car can consume approximately 1.5 litres of AdBlue® every 620 miles (1.0–1.5 litres for the Passat and Passat Estate). The chart below details the AdBlue® tank size and location for all Volkswagen models that use SCR. How will I know if the system needs topping-up?
