DEFendal Diesel Exhaust Fluid

 DEFendal Brochure

The EPA has mandated that all on-road diesel vehicles manufactured in model year 2010 or later must be equipped with technology to reduce NOx emissions.

It is estimated that by the beginning of 2010, 65 trucks will emit the same amount of air pollutants as 1 truck did in 1988.

The 2010 emission standards in North America are 0.2g/HP-hr NOx and 0.01g/HP-hr Particulate Matter (PM).

NOx emissions need removed from the air because they contribute to global warming, acid rain, atmospheric particles that cause visual impairment.

• If there is contamination the engine will yet again be throttled back.
