What is Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) and why is it crucial for tractor-trailers?

At Zaro Transportation, we understand the importance of keeping our vehicles running optimally and environmentally friendly. One of the key components in the operation of our modern tractor-trailers is Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), a solution that helps reduce pollutant emissions and meets the most stringent environmental regulations.

How does DEF work in tractor-trailers?

DEF is a solution composed mainly of urea and deionized water used in diesel vehicles equipped with SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology. When injected into the exhaust system, DEF breaks down nitrogen oxides (NOx), one of the main pollutant emissions from diesel engines, into nitrogen and water. This process not only helps reduce harmful emissions but also improves fuel efficiency and engine performance.

Benefits of using DEF in the Zaro Transportation fleet

• Emission Reduction: We comply with Mexican and international environmental regulations, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
• Improved Fuel Efficiency: Proper use of DEF can improve fuel efficiency, which translates into significant savings in long-term operations.
• Engine Performance Optimization: DEF helps keep the engine clean of debris that can affect its performance, ensuring smoother, longer-lasting operation.

DEF Maintenance and Management

Proper handling of DEF is vital to its effectiveness. At Zaro Transportation, we ensure that DEF is stored in optimal conditions, avoiding exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. In addition, our technicians are highly trained to handle and replenish DEF, ensuring that our vehicles are always ready to operate efficiently and safely.
