A cover for a DEF assembly with openings dimensioned to receive various components that are positioned in the DEF holding tank and associated seals for closing the openings and retaining the components is disclosed. The seals are fixed to the cover by a sonic weld.

An aftertreatment system comprises an aftertreatment component. An outlet sensor is positioned downstream of the aftertreatment component. A controller is communicatively coupled to the outlet sensor. The controller is configured to interpret an outlet signal from the outlet sensor. The outlet signal is indicative of a performance of the aftertreatment component. The controller determines if the aftertreatment component has deactivated. In response to determining that the aftertreatment component has deactivated, the controller provides a catalyst active material to at least a portion of the aftertreatment component. The catalyst active material coats at least the portion of the aftertreatment component so as to remanufacture the aftertreatment component.

A reagent dosing system includes an injector having an outlet configured to be in fluid communication with the exhaust conduit; a reagent tank configured to hold a volume of reagent; a water tank configured to hold a volume of water; and a means for 1) pumping reagent from the reagent tank to the injector for injection of reagent into the exhaust conduit and 2) pumping water from the water tank to the injector for flushing residual reagent from the injector.

The present invention relates to an installation for depollution of the exhaust gas circulating in an exhaust line (10), notably from an internal-combustion engine, comprising at least one catalysis means for selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx), at least one particle elimination means, a main tank (26) comprising at least one particle reducing agent and means (20) for feeding the reducing agent into the exhaust line. According to the invention, the installation comprises reducing agent additivation means (30).

A vehicle exhaust system includes an exhaust component having an inner wall to define an internal cavity that provides an engine exhaust gas flow path from an inlet to an outlet. An injector is configured to spray a fluid into the internal cavity to mix with engine exhaust gas. An inlet baffle is mounted to the exhaust component adjacent the inlet and includes at least one scoop having a scoop length that is greater than a scoop width. The scoop includes a scoop opening that directs engine exhaust gas toward the inner wall of the internal cavity at a location that is upstream of spray injected by the injector.

A system comprises a tank header configured to couple to a reductant tank and a heating mechanism positioned proximate to the tank header. The heating mechanism is configured to heat at least a portion of the tank header. The system may further comprise a conduit configured to pass reductant from the reductant tank and a junction configured to receive reductant from the reductant tank.

An aftertreatment system comprises an aftertreatment component. An outlet sensor is positioned downstream of the aftertreatment component. A controller is communicatively coupled to the outlet sensor. The controller is configured to interpret an outlet signal from the outlet sensor. The outlet signal is indicative of a performance of the aftertreatment component. The controller determines if the aftertreatment component has deactivated. In response to determining that the aftertreatment component has deactivated, the controller provides a catalyst active material to at least a portion of the aftertreatment component. The catalyst active material coats at least the portion of the aftertreatment component so as to remanufacture the aftertreatment component.

A diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) system and a method of controlling the DEF system are disclosed. The method may include determining that a shutdown condition of the DEF system is satisfied; providing a control signal to open a valve of a buffer tank of the DEF system based on determining that the shutdown condition of the DEF system is satisfied; determining that a level of DEF remaining in the buffer tank satisfies a threshold; and closing the valve of the buffer tank based on the level of DEF remaining in the buffer tank satisfying the threshold.

A tubing for a fluid medium of motor vehicles, particularly for an aqueous urea solution, comprises a tube and a connector arranged on one tube end of the tube. The connector has a connecting part, a heating wire, and a housing which encloses the connecting part and the heating wire. The connecting part comprises a retaining element for an engaging connection of a plug that can be plugged into the connecting part. The heating wire extends at least from the connecting end associated with the tube end into the intermediate section, wherein at least along the intermediate section of the connecting part, the connector is preferably free of alignment elements arranged in or on the connecting part and used for aligning the heating wire.

A reagent dosing system includes an injector having an outlet configured to be in fluid communication with the exhaust conduit; a reagent tank configured to hold a volume of reagent; a water tank configured to hold a volume of water; and a means for 1) pumping reagent from the reagent tank to the injector for injection of reagent into the exhaust conduit and 2) pumping water from the water tank to the injector for flushing residual reagent from the injector.
