The technology
of tomorrow, today
Selective Catalytic Reduction used in conjunction with AGCO SISU
POWER engines means an end to damaging emissions and high
fuel costs
How does the system work?
The SCR system on AGCO SISU
POWER e
engines treats the
3
exhaust gases that would normally
enter and damage the atmosphere,
using AdBlue
diesel exhaust fluid.
®
AdBlue is metered in precise
quantities and is injected via the
Bosch control system into the
exhaust, which includes a catalytic
converter.
Simple to use, easy to maintain
There's nothing complicated about
the SCR system. It's incredibly
easy to control and maintain. The
AdBlue is held in a separate tank
located next to the fuel tank and is
consumed at the maximum rate of
3% AdBlue to diesel, the AdBlue
tank only needs to be filled every
second fuel tank fill.
A 600 litre container of AdBlue is
enough to treat 20,000 litres of
diesel safely whilst still allowing for
optimum performance throughout.
Selective Catalytic Reduction can
cut fuel consumption by a minimum
of 5% compared to equivalent
engines using alternative emission
reduction systems. On average, this
is the equivalent to thousands of
litres of fuel saved every year.
Reduced fuel consumption means
a significant reduction in carbon
dioxide (CO
) emissions. Due to
2
12
highly optimised combustion,
particulate emissions are over
83% lower than current legislation
demands. This is exceptionally
beneficial for the environment and
to people's health. Other gaseous
emissions, such as hydrocarbons
and carbon monoxide (CO)
emissions, are lower than generally
in Stage 3A engines, making this
engine safe and future proof.
The characteristics of the SCR
system means that optimised
combustion generates around
15% less heat.This 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
operating costs.
SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction) technology will be
essential for meeting the strictest
emissions limits at the beginning
of the next decade, whilst saving
money on rising fuel costs and
protecting the environment for the
next generation.
This is technology for tomorrow,
ready for you to use today. For
your future, for your business,
for the environment.
