IMPORTANT
- 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
irreparably damage the exhaust gas
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.
- The temperature of the stored DEF
fluid affects the minimum storage time
without the risk of alteration: average
storage temperature of 25°C (77°F)
with maximum peak not exceeding
30°C (86°F): 12 months, 35°C (95°F): 6
months.
