Working Principle of the AdBlue Pump

Feb 20, 2026

Pump Adblue (Urea Dispenser)

Pump Adblue is a special filling and metering device for urea solution (AdBlue/DEF), designed exclusively for the SCR exhaust systems of diesel vehicles. Its core components include a corrosion-resistant pump, high-precision metering system,and intelligent control unit, complying with the ISO 22241 standard for purity and measurement.

I. Core Definition and Application

AdBlue: A 32.5% high-purity aqueous urea solution used in SCR systems to reduce NOₓ emissions. It is mandatory for diesel vehicles meeting China IV / Euro IV or higher emission standards.

Pump Adblue: A dedicated refueling pump unit. The use of ordinary fuel pumps is strictly prohibited (urea is corrosive and prone to crystallization, and contamination will damage the SCR system).

Application: Used in gas stations, logistics parks, vehicle fleets, ports, etc., to fill urea for trucks, buses, construction machinery, and ships, with accurate metering, anti-pollution, and anti-crystallization functions.

II. Core Structure (Split / Integrated Type)

1. Filling Pump (Core Component)

Type: Diaphragm pump, gear pump, plunger pump (self-priming, urea corrosion resistant).

Material: 316L stainless steel, engineering plastics, Teflon seals; copper, zinc, and aluminum are not allowed (to prevent chemical reactions).

Pressure: 0.3–0.6 MPa, flow rate 10–60 L/min.

Anti-freezing: Models for northern regions are equipped with heating/tracing to prevent crystallization below -11°C.

2. Metering and Control

Flow meter: Turbine / oval gear flow meter, accuracy ±0.3%–±0.5%, with temperature compensation (urea density varies with temperature).

Control motherboard: Supports fixed-volume / fixed-amount / free refueling, self-locking to prevent tampering, and supports card payment / QR code payment / cash payment.

Filtration: Three-stage filtration (coarse filtration → fine filtration → terminal filtration) to protect SCR injectors.

3. Terminal Components

Nozzle: Equipped with shut-off valve, anti-drip function, and breakaway protection.

Pipeline: Special urea pipeline with check valve and sight glass (to check for air bubbles).

Cabinet: Outdoor rainproof, dustproof, and explosion-proof (optional).

III. Operation Process (Closed-Loop Control)

Insert the nozzle → trigger sensor → system self-inspection.

Motor starts → pump self-priming → three-stage filtration → pressure build-up (0.3–0.6 MPa).

Real-time metering by flow meter → temperature compensation → display / billing.

Stop pump automatically when the set volume is reached → pipeline backflow to prevent dripping.

Pull out the nozzle → operation completed, data uploaded to the background.
