EPA Emission Regulation Clean Air Act Reduced NOx Emissions For a Cleaner Environment SCR Technology � Uses DEF to convert harmful pollutants into nitrogen & water vapor Regulatory Implementation � 2013 - Off-Road Vehicles Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 3
Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 4
What DEF Is… Diesel Exhaust Fluid It is an Automotive Grade Chemical � 32.5% Urea 67.5% Demineralized Water It is a High Purity Chemical � ISO 22241 (1-3) � API Certification Required Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 5
What DEF is Not… What You Need To Know It is Not a Fertilizer Grade Urea It is Not a Fuel Additive � Uses a Separate Tank It is Not a Hazardous or Flammable Chemical � Triple Zero Placard Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 6
Packaging Requirements To Maintain Purity Requires Dedicated Closed System Containers & Tanks � Reconditioned Agricultural containers may not be used � Initial Fill Requires “Virgin” HDPE or Stainless Steel Material Drum IBC Mini-Bulk Bulk 55 Gallon 275/330 Gallon 330+ Gallon 1200+ Gallon Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 7
Dispensing Requirements To Maintain Purity Requires Dedicated Pump Systems � Materials of construction must meet ISO 22241-3 � Primary Materials Used: - Stainless Steel - HDPE - EPDM - DEF Approved Sealants Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 8
DEF Purity Must Be Maintained For… Performance, Reliability & Protection Increased Fuel Economy � Estimated 10+% based on torque & vehicle load More Power � Engine operates at optimal combustion temperatures Less Maintenance � More uptime Maximized Engine Service Life � More efficient Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 9
If Purity is Not Maintained… What Will Happen? Increase in Cost � Higher DEF dosing, requires more DEF per gallon of diesel � Decreases fuel economy, more diesel fuel required � Increase in repair/maintenance Vehicle Downtime � De-rating and/or vehicle shut down � Downtime associated with vehicle SCR Catalyst failure � $10,000 - $20,000 cost to repair � Loss of Engine Warranty Micro Matic - Closed, Sealed & Secure Container Valve Systems Delivering DEF Purity, Packaging Integrity & Operational Excellence 10
