Abstract: A sealing device which is used as part of an injector in a reductant delivery unit (RDU), where the RDU is part of a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system for injecting diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) into an exhaust system, used for controlling exhaust emissions. This invention improves the purging efficiency of the RDU, in addition to improving the sealing performance of the unit by reducing the fluid volume to be evacuated from the injector, and provides an additional sealing barrier to reduce the sealing load of the existing sealing elements. An additional sealing device having a ring seal and a stopper element (also referred to as a “plug”) is pressed into the upper valve body of the injector, which results in a reduced fluid volume that is left behind after a purging event, due to the reduced initial volume at the beginning of the purge.

A throttle portion protrudes from the start point in an axial direction, and includes an outer-peripheral corner (protrusion round portion) having a curved surface protruding in the axial direction and in the radial direction. When an inlet opening starts to be slightly opened, since a hydraulic fluid is throttled when flowing through a second gate opened between a corner of a sleeve and the protrusion round portion, a rapid increasing of a flow quantity of the hydraulic fluid and an instability of a control of the hydraulic fluid can be suppressed.
