Crystal formation in the SCR system? Workshops rely on TUNAP 987 for preventive system maintenance

SCR catalytic converters have become an indispensable part of modern diesel vehicles. However, these systems are susceptible to malfunctions, particularly due to urea crystal formation. This can lead to malfunctions, increased pollutant emissions, loss of performance and engine problems, which can result in costly repairs.

Watch the video now:

With microflex® 987 System Active Ingredient SCR, TUNAP offers a tried-and-tested solution for reliably protecting urea dosing systems and SCR catalysts against crystal formation – while generating attractive after-sales revenue at the same time.

The challenge: crystal formation in the urea dosing system

A familiar problem often arises in workshop practice:

  • The high temperatures required for complete conversion of the urea are often not reached in everyday operation.
  • Insufficiently converted urea crystallises – especially in the dosing unit and in the SCR catalytic converter itself.
  • This results in deposits that limit NOx reduction.
  • The result: increased pollutant emissions, engine malfunctions, loss of performance and frequent visits to the workshop.
  • This affects not only passenger cars, but also commercial vehicles, stationary units and stationary diesel systems with only short operating times.
