SCR Technology: The Innovation to Lessen Harmful Gases

UD Trucks is committed to leaving the world a better place and they’ve started on this goal by improving their unit’s systems. UD Trucks has integrated the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology on its UD Quester line.

The SCR technology is an emissions control system that’s engineered to reduce the harmful emissions from diesel engines. Studies have shown that this technology can remove up to 98% of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from diesel exhaust gases, which are large contributors to air pollution and have been shown to lead to respiratory illnesses.

For the heavy-duty Quester, the SCR system is a critical part of its engine, and it uses AdBlue to maximize its effects.

By procuring a UD Quester for your operations, you minimize your transportation company’s impact on the environment. This is because the SCR technology ensures the truck’s compliance with strict emission regulations but, it also enhances fuel efficiency and engine performance.

UD Trucks is committed to creating sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions for the logistics industry. Read more about its SCR solution below.

What is SCR Technology?

The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system is an emissions treatment technology that aims to reduce harmful pollutants such as nitrogen oxides that are created during engine combustion.

The SCR works with AdBlue to turn harmful emissions into harmless nitrogen and water vapor. It does this by injecting AdBlue into the gas exhausted from the engine, all of this happening safely within your UD Quester’s system.

The best part? Your operators can monitor how much AdBlue they need on the vehicle’s dashboard so they can prepare when to refill this fluid. In addition to that, your team can also see this information from the Volvo Connect platform.

AdBlue is available at all UD Trucks authorized dealerships and may also be readily available at fuel stations, online stores, and workshops.

What is AdBlue?

AdBlue is a urea-based solution that’s colorless, odorless, and non-toxic. This solution is used to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxide created by diesel engines.

AdBlue consumption is approximately four to five percent of diesel used. The UD Quester has various AdBlue tank sizes available for your convenience, simply choose between 20L, 34L, and 50L options.

Why Choose SCR?

SCR doesn’t just reduce the amount of harmful gas emissions; it also helps your truck become more fuel efficient because it optimizes your engine’s combustion efficiency. This allows your truck to be more durable and to have fewer service requirements while increasing productivity and enhancing maneuverability without needing to increase the engine’s size.

Because of the Euro 5 SCR technology, the UD Quester’s Nitrogen emissions are 60% less than the Euro 3, and 43% less than Euro 4. Additionally, the amount of particulate matter is 80% less than Euro 3 levels.

It also maximizes engine uptime which means your vehicle stays on the road for longer and it can help your team be more productive. The SCR technology also allows your engine to operate to its fullest potential by giving it the power to maximize fuel combustion thus improving engine performance and drivability.

The SCR technology combined with the UD Quester’s features makes it a formidable truck on the road. You have all the essentials you need while having less environmental impact on the planet.
