This AdBlue comes with an Integrated Easy Pour Spout for convenient use. It is a specially formulated high diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) for use in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. AdBlue contains a 32.5% solution of urea in deionised water which is injected into the exhaust stream to break down harmful nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapour. Using AdBlue can lead to a 5% reduction in fuel costs and lower servicing costs. It helps vehicles meet emissions standards set by regulatory bodies like the European Union for SCR-equipped vehicles. The AdBlue is supplied in a 10-litre container, suitable for a wide range of vehicles. It is produced to ISO 22241 standard and is designed for use with the latest generation of Diesel-powered EURO IV, EURO V, and Euro VI engines equipped with SCR systems.
