Tank Monitors Designed for Diesel Exhaust Fluid


The growth of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) market around the world is expected to continue for the next several years. Market research suggests that DEF sales should grow yearly at 5.42 percent (CAGR) between 2018 and 2022, according to a summary published at 360 Market Updates. The growth is driven by increased penetration of commercial vehicles with updated diesel engines, which spray DEF into the exhaust stream to convert harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions into nitrogen, water and a small amount of carbon dioxide.

Equipment used in DEF storage and dispensing must be made with materials that won't cause contamination, as the solution is comprised of 32.5% urea and 67.5% de-ionized water. DEF can cause dispensing equipment to clog outside its optimum temperature range of 12-86 F. Husky Corporation and BJE engineers understand the nuances of handling DEF, so their product designs use 100 percent ISO recognized DEF compatible materials.
