UREA QUALITY SENSOR [SKYACTIV-D 2.2]
id0140z7019200
Purpose, Function
• The urea quality sensor detects the AdBlue® concentration in the urea tank.
• The detected concentration is sent to the PCM via a CAN signal from the dosing control unit after sending it to the dosing control unit via SENT communication.
Construction
• The urea quality sensor is installed in the urea tank.
Operation
• The urea quality sensor is supplied power from the dosing control unit and initiates measuring the AdBlue® concentration.
• After supplying the power, it begins measuring the initial concentration after
approx. 9 s, and then performs the measurement
approx. every 21 s.
Measurement method
-
• By operating the built-in heater, the urea quality sensor measures the change in the AdBlue® temperature using the temperature sensor.
• The urea quality sensor detects the AdBlue® concentration by the difference in thermal conductivity and also detects fluid other than AdBlue®.
Fail-safe
• Not applicable.
