Martechnic is happy to announce the launch of a new test kit “MT UREA CHECK” for rapid on-board determination of urea concentration in marine diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) AUS 40 (aqueous urea solution at 40 % concentration).
The proper concentration of urea in AUS 40 is of crucial importance for optimal performance of diesel engines with SCR (selective catalytic reduction) system. The prolonged storage of AUS 40 and high temperatures can lead to its gradual decomposition and thus have a negative effect on the urea concentration.
The customized test kit “MT UREA CHECK” enables measuring of urea concentration in AUS 40 by means of UREA REFRACTOMETER and determination of pH value with special INDICATOR PAPER. Utilizing the test kit, the quality marine diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) AUS 40 can be assessed in accordance with ISO 18611-1:2014. The following possible error sources can be promptly determined:
- Technical deviating specifications
- Thermal instability (shelf life)
- Dilution (possibly chemical contamination)
The test results are easily readable directly on the light-dark separating line on the scale of the UREA REFRACTOMETER.
