M B JARVIE LTD: INDEPENDENT MERCEDES GLASGOW GARAGE

What is Mercedes AdBlue and why is it used?

INDEPENDENT
MERCEDES GLASGOW GARAGE


Mercedes AdBlue is a liquid solution used to treat exhaust gases on modern diesel engines. Mercedes AdBlue is introduced into the exhaust gases, following combustion, using an exhaust treatment system called selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Treatment of diesel exhaust gases in this way allows up to 90% of the produced nitrogen oxides (NOx) by the vehicle to be converted into environmentally friendly components, nitrogen and water.
Adblue Mercedes BlueTEC technology facilitates a significant reduction in harmful exhaust gas emissions without compromising the performance and driving experience of your Mercedes-Benz vehicle.

What Does Mercedes AdBlue Do?

INDEPENDENT
MERCEDES GLASGOW GARAGE


Mercedes Adblue is used in combination with a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) converter. As mentioned above, Mercedes AdBlue significantly reduces the production of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) on diesel engines. The Mercedes AdBlue solution, comprised of high purity urea, diluted in distilled water, is carried onboard the diesel vehicle in its own reservoir. An onboard computer regulates the administration and dosing of Mercedes Adblue with reference to signals received from a NOx sensor fitted in the exhaust. A chemical reaction occurs within the exhaust stack, whereby the urea solution is converted into ammonia (NH3) which reacts with NOx in the exhaust. The product of this process is nitrogen and water vapor.

How & When to Service Your Mercedes AdBlue

INDEPENDENT
MERCEDES GLASGOW GARAGE


Refilling the Mercedes AdBlue tank is not something you should attempt to do yourself. Filling methods vary and may required use of special tools and diagnostic equipment.  Mercedes Adblue systems have a large capacity, providing tens of thousands of miles. Under normal vehicle operating conditions, the AdBlue tank needs to be refilled only during regularly scheduled maintenance. However, if you are presented with an Mercedes Adblue level warning on your driver information display, don’t ignore this. If your Mercedes Adblue tank runs empty, your vehicle will not start.
