Some Points of Interest

• The refractometer is a portable precision optical instrument used for measuring the diesel exhaust fluid concentration

• When a liquid sample is placed on the prism the light passing through it  is bent and the more concentrated the liquid the more the light will  bend

• The refractometer contains a reticle or scale that is enlarged through  the eyepiece to measure this light and the values on the scale have been  established to evaluate the DEF condition

• EPA regulations require all diesel engines manufactured on or after January 1 2010 to meet lowered NOx emissions standards

• Most heavy duty engine manufacturers have chosen to utilize SCR  including Detroit Diesel DD13 DD15 DD16 Cummins ISX line PACCAR and  Volvo-Mack
