The risk
A small number of urea injection pumps present a problem of membrane separation, which leads to an under-injection of urea compared to the quantity of urea requested and might cause the exhaust emissions' level of nitrogen oxides (NOx) to exceed regulated limits. Nitrogen oxides are harmful to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
