INFORMATION ON DEF FLUID
To meet the standards of anti-pollution regulations, the Selective Catalytic Reduction after-
treatment system (SCR Catalyst) requires a liquid reagent named "DEF (Diesel Exhaust
Fluid)" or "Urea" or "AdBlue" (registered trademark).
DEF is a simple, non-toxic and pre-mixed fluid composed of an urea solution in demineralised
water.
- It freezes at a temperature of approx. -11°C (12°F). Freezing and unfreezing do not affect
the characteristics and quality of the DEF fluid.
- It slowly decomposes even at ambient temperature. The speed of this reaction increases
as temperature increases, e.g. by solar radiation. During this process, ammonia vapours are
formed, which have a pungent odour and irritate the skin, mucous membranes and eyes in
particular. This can result in burning eyes, nose, throat, with coughing and tearing stimulus.
- They reacts with sodium and calcium hypochlorite to form explosive nitrogen trichloride.
- It may react violently with strong acids, bases and oxidants.
- Only a DEF fluid compliant with
international standards ISO 22241 - 1 - 2
- 3 - 4: 2006 (E).
- Do not inhale the released
ammoniacal vapours.
- Avoid contact or ingestion.
- Wear personal protective equipment
(gloves - protective clothes).
- Wash the area splashed by DEF fluid
with plenty of water.
- If the DEF fluid comes into contact
with the mouth, rinse immediately with
plenty of water and drink abundant
drinking water.
