EuroDeF® is a trademarked Diesel Exhaust Fluid specially developed to meet the advanced emission norms for Diesel vehicles. Diesel Exhaust Fluid is a nontoxic solution of 32.5% ultra pure automotive grade urea and 67.5% deionized water, when injected into the exhaust stream and passed over a catalyst, it helps convert NOx into nitrogen gas and water vapor — two harmless and natural components of the air we breathe.
This system is called Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and widely accepted as a vital fluid in trucks and many diesel pickups and SUVs to meet the latest emissions standards of BS4/BS6 vehicles. DEF is not a fuel additive and never comes into contact with diesel. It is stored in a separate tank, typically with a blue filler cap The chemical reactions used in SCR systems require a constant feed of ammonia gas. DEF is sprayed into the exhaust stream by an advanced injection system and then converted into ammonia on a catalyst.

Since the introduction of diesel emissions legislation, truck manufacturers have battled to reduce emissions while maintaining and improving engine torque. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is an after treatment technology, which means that it deals with emissions without adapting combustion conditions. In contrast, Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) functions by reducing combustion temperatures, thereby reducing NOx. The use of SCR has allowed therefore manufacturers to tune engines, improving fuel efficiency and increasing torque.
Making sure you do not run out of DEF in an SCR equipped truck is simple watch the DEF gauge, which is part of the diesel fuel gauge, for when it is time to refill. DEF is stored in a dedicated tank next to the fuel tank on the driver's side. The tanks range in size from 6 to 23 gallons depending on the truck's application. The DEF tank fill opening is designed to accommodate a DEF fill nozzle to ensure only DEF is put into the tank. A diesel fuel nozzle will not fit into the DEF tank opening.
EuroDeF® is key to helping improve fuel economy by up to five percent while simultaneously reducing exhaust emissions.
