Cummins Filtration will be hosting a webinar on diesel exhaust fluid on May 7.


The purpose of the 30-minute webinar, "Diesel Exhaust Fluid and its Role in 2010 SCR Engines," is to provide customers with in-depth practical information on DEF usage in 2010 Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. Topics include 2010 emission regulations, how DEF works in SCR systems, recommended practices for use and handling, availability, and packaging options.

The webinar will be offered at three times: 9 a.m., 11 a.m, and 3 p.m. CST.

"With SCR being the leading technology to gain compliance with EPA 2010 diesel emissions standards, it is essential that we help our customers understand SCR and DEF and how it impacts their business." said KC Hall, director of Diesel Exhaust Fluid Business Development. "In addition to expanding our DEF product offering and availability to meet varying customer needs, we have made it a priority to increase awareness around SCR and DEF."

Cummins Filtration offers several other tools for aiding customers including a detailed product brochure, a self-guided training module, and a usage calculator, all available on the Cummins Filtration website, cumminsfiltration.com. The online usage calculator allows information to be keyed in, such as fleet size and miles driven, to calculate their annual DEF consumption and estimated DEF fill-ups per year.

Cummins Filtration is an established supplier of DEF, the urea based solution necessary for SCR system functionality. Cummins Filtration currently offers DEF in various packaging options, including bulk, 330 gallon plastic totes, 275 gallon disposable totes and 55 gallon plastic drums. Smaller packaging sizes and dispensing equipment will be available by mid-2009.
