YBlu DEF FAQs?

What is Urea?

A compound of nitrogen turning to ammonia when heated, used in various industries.

Urea is used as a fertilizer in agriculture and is a key component in reducing emissions from diesel engines through the use of DEF.

Why use a 32.5% Urea Solution?

The ideal solution for the lowest freeze point and optimum NOx reduction.

The 32.5% urea concentration is the ideal balance for freezing point and SCR system calibration, ensuring effective NOx reduction.

Does DEF expand when frozen?

Yes, DEF expands by approximately 7% when frozen.

DEF packaging and tanks are specially designed to accommodate the expansion without leaking or damage.

What is YBlu DEF and how should it be used?

A mixture of high-purity urea and water for reducing NOx emissions.

YBlu DEF, a 32.5% urea solution, is used in SCR-equipped diesel engines to reduce NOx emissions efficiently. It should be filled in the designated DEF tank, not in the diesel fuel tank.

How much YBlu DEF is required?

Consumption rate is about 3% of diesel fuel usage.

For every 100 gallons of diesel, approximately 3 gallons of YBlu DEF are required, though this can vary based on driving conditions.

How much YBlu DEF is required?

YBlu DEF is non-toxic, stable, odorless, and colorless. If it gets on your skin or clothes, rinse with water.

YBlu DEF is non-toxic, stable, odorless, and colorless. If it gets on your skin or clothes, rinse with water. If in the eyes, flush with clean water for at least 15 minutes. Although DEF is colorless, avoid spilling on clothing or vehicle upholstery.

How should YBlu DEF be stored??

YBlu DEF should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a constant temperature. For optimal shelf life (24 months), store between 86°F/30°C and 12°F/-11°C.

YBlu DEF should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a constant temperature. For optimal shelf life (24 months), store between 86°F/30°C and 12°F/-11°C. It is better to keep DEF indoors, but an outdoor heated enclosure/container is also suitable. Avoid storing in direct sunlight. Storage temperature above 12°F is recommended to avoid crystallization, which starts at 11°F. Prolonged storage above 86°F will reduce shelf life by causing hydrolysis to occur, with the consequent formation of ammonia and pressure rise.

What fuel saving is expected from a truck equipped with SCR technology?

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is an after-treatment emissions control technology, that deals with emissions outside of the engine, the manufacturers can tune engines to boost performance and achieve fuel savings.

Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is an after-treatment emissions control technology, that deals with emissions outside of the engine, the manufacturers can tune engines to boost performance and achieve fuel savings. The extent of these savings will vary, but fleets' experiences with heavy-duty trucks suggest fuel savings of around 5% compared to Non-SCR models with similar engine specifications.

How do I check my DEF?

The distance until your next DEF refill can be viewed at any time in the message center on the vehicle dashboard. Follow these simple steps:.

The distance until your next DEF refill can be viewed at any time in the message center on the vehicle dashboard. Follow these simple steps:

  • Switch on the ignition, but do not start the engine (Check that a valid smart key is inside the vehicle and ensure that the brake pedal is not pressed. Hold down the engine START/STOP button until the instrument panel warning lamps illuminate)
  • Press the OK button on the steering wheel control to access the Main Menu (On some models, repeatedly press the OK button until Driver Assistance is displayed)
  • Using the down arrow button on the steering wheel control, scroll down and highlight Vehicle Info
  • Press the OK button to confirm the selection
  • Scroll down to highlight Diesel Exhaust Fluid (On some models this is displayed as Next Service)
  • *Not all vehicles are equipped to display the above information. Contact your Retailer for clarification.
  • Press the OK button to confirm the selection. The DEF range is then displayed

Can I refill the DEF tank myself?

Yes, you can purchase DEF from Yathaavat and can refill in your vehicle’s DEF tank, keeping all SOPs in consideration
