and recommendations prescribed by the
manufacturer of the DEF fluid.
- Tanks and containers made of
aluminium, copper, copper alloys,
non-alloy steel, galvanised steel are
not suitable for use, as the components
of these metals can detach and

after-treatment system. Containers
made of polymers (e.g. polyethylene,
propylene and polyoxymethylene) are
suitable up to a temperature of 60°C
(140°F).
- It is essential to avoid direct sunlight
and UV radiation on stored tanks and
containers.
