SCR - Frequently asked questions
®
What is Adblue
?
AdBlue is a urea based diesel
exhaust fluid which is injected via
the Bosch control system into the
exhaust, which includes a catalytic
converter.
Where is the Adblue tank
located?
Adblue is kept in a separate tank
located next to the fuel tank.
How will SCR improve fuel
efficiency?
SCR will fine tune engine
efficiency, optimising combustion
which significantly improves
horsepower and fuel economy.
Where can I purchase
Adblue?
Adblue can be bought from your
local Massey Ferguson dealership.
What is the ratio of Adblue to
a tank of fuel?
A 600 litre container of AdBlue is
enough to treat 20,000 litres of
diesel safely whilst still allowing for
optimum performance.
How will I know if I my
Adblue tank is empty?
A gauge on the Datavision screen
gives a visual warning when the
tank is low.
Will my combine shut down if
my Adblue tank is empty?
Your combine will not shut down
but will not work to its full capacity.
Will Adblue stop working
under extremely hot
temperatures?
No. Adblue is kept in a sealed
container to prevent evaporation.
Urea would have to be exposed
for a prolonged period before any
degradation could be measurable.
Will Adblue and SCR impair
the performance of the
machine?
Not at all, in fact it will improve
its performance. Optimised
combustion generates around
15% less heat, a reduction in heat
means the cooling package is
lighter and more efficient. The life
span of SCR equipment is equal
to the engine's lifetime, and the
system is practically service free.
The operator hardly notices the
presence of SCR at all. What the
operator will notice however, is the
significant savings in operational
costs, servicing times and fuel.
