Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) System: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2013 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2013 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The SCR system reduces nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust stream by a chemical reduction process using the SCR catalyst and a reductant injection system that introduces diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) into the exhaust system upstream of the SCR catalyst. The reductant injection system is directly controlled and monitored by the PCM. For additional information on the SCR system components, refer to ENGINE CONTROL COMPONENTS in this article.
