DEF DELETE VOLVO

PROBLEMS SYSTEM SCR TRUCK

The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system is a technology used in heavy-duty diesel trucks to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), which are harmful pollutants that contribute to air pollution and can have negative effects on human health. The system works by injecting a solution of urea (also called diesel exhaust fluid or DEF) into the exhaust stream, where it reacts with NOx to convert it into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.

However, there can be issues that may arise with the SCR system, some of which include:

• DEF quality and contamination: The SCR system requires a high-quality DEF solution to function properly. If the DEF is contaminated or not stored properly, it can cause issues with the system, such as reduced efficiency or even damage to the SCR catalytic converter.
• DEF level and dosing: The SCR system requires a constant supply of DEF to function properly. If the DEF level is low or the dosing system is not functioning properly, it can cause issues with the system.
• SCR catalytic converter: The SCR catalytic converter is a critical component of the system that can become clogged or damaged over time, reducing its efficiency or causing it to fail completely.
• DEF tank and lines: The DEF tank and lines can become corroded or damaged, causing leaks or reducing the flow of DEF to the SCR system.
• Software issues: SCR systems are controlled by a complex software system, which may have bugs, errors or other issues that can cause problems with the system.
• Sensor and wiring issues: SCR systems rely on a variety of sensors to monitor and control the system, which can fail or become damaged over time, causing issues with the system.

It’s important to note that regular maintenance, proper DEF storage and usage, and keeping the truck in good running condition can help minimize the problems associated with SCR systems. Additionally, if you notice any issues with your truck’s SCR system, it’s important to have it inspected and repaired by a qualified technician as soon as possible.

ADVANTAGES OF UREA DELETE

As we indicated in the introduction, UREA deletion also has a number of additional noteworthy advantages in addition to aiding in improving engine efficiency, fuel economy, and performance.

Cost: When the SCR is removed, there is no longer a need to buy DEF to inject into the exhaust.
SCR units are troublesome and frequently need to be repaired. In particular for agricultural equipment where UREA service has shown to be so beneficial, repairs require downtime, and downtime costs money. By removing the SCR, you also eliminate whatever problem it may have caused.
