Sensors and Pumps, Injectors & filters to keep AdBlue® systems running optimally
Modern exhaust and emission systems rely on a range of electronic and mechanical components – popularly referred to as: Mechatronics – to control and validate the effect of emission reduction.
With proper maintenance of both exhaust system and engine, as well as quality Mechatronic parts, your emission system will operate seamlessly and efficiently, optimizing both fuel and AdBlue® consumption. But without it, you may experience reduced performance, OBD errors, and at worst: Damage to more expensive emission technology.
Dinex not only offers a wide range of Mechatronics – tested and validated to meet OE specifications – we also offer our support, guidance and technical expertise for when things get complicated. That’s how we define true partnership.
All sensors, pumps and injectors are thoroughly tested at the OE endorsed Dinex Test Center, before released for sale.
We cover all vital mechatronics needed to service emission systems for all makes of trucks and busses
When it comes to mechatronics, you don’t just need a supplier. You need a partner, and that is exactly what Dinex is to you.
So here's how it all goes down in a typical Euro VI system, and how each Mechatronic component is making sure everything works as it should:
First of all, there's several Temperature Sensors throughout the system. Some are checking whether the exhaust gas is hot enough to inject AdBlue©. Some detects if the filter is regenerating.
The Pressure Sensor measures the difference between back pressure before and after the DPF. If it's too low, it indicates that the filter is damaged. If too high, DPF is in need for regeneration or cleaning.
The 1st NOX-sensor measures the amount of NOX in the system before the SCR. In other words: The baseline.
Knowing the baseline, the Engine Control Unit tells the AdBlue© Pump exactly how much AdBlue© is needed in the exhaust gas in that exact moment.
The AdBlue© is taken from the tank, and to make sure there are no contaminants in the system, there is an AdBlue© Filter installed in the pump.
After the SCR, there's a 2nd NOX-sensor which verifies that sufficient NOX has been removed. If not, the system will try to correct, or eventually malfunction.
That's it! Still doesn't make sense? Check out the short 5 minute video below, where Karlis explains it all:
Working with Mechatronics isn’t always simple. A faulty sensor or defect injector can be replaced, but the root cause as to why it failed may very well be elsewhere in the system.
Through his alter-ego Dr. NOX, our Customer Care Manager Karlis Banis has dedicated his career to spreading knowledge about exhaust and emission systems, and why they act like they do. Understanding how the individual components work and how they are affected by other features in the system, is vital when doing maintenance and repairs.
