  • Patent number: 9399940
    Abstract: A method pertaining to an SCR system for cleaning of exhaust gases from an engine including a dosing unit (250) to supply a reducing agent to an exhaust duct (240): Determining (s340) whether there is an undesired temperature level of the dosing unit (250). If one is found, removing (s360) warmed reducing agent from the dosing unit (250) and supplying it to the exhaust duct (240). Calculating (s350) and removing an amount of reducing agent based on a prevailing temperature of the dosing unit (250), or removing warmed reducing agent. Also a computer program product containing program code (P) for a computer (200; 210) for implementing the method. Also a device of an SCR system and a motor vehicle (100) which is equipped with the device are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9212581
    Abstract: A method pertaining to an SCR system which includes a dosing unit (250) to supply reducing agent to an exhaust duct (240) for exhaust cleaning, and a container for reducing agent: the steps of determining (s320) a cooling requirement of the dosing unit (250) and choosing (s340) a limit level for reducing agent in the container (205) on the basis of the cooling requirement. A computer program product containing program code (P) implements a method according to the invention. A device of an SCR system includes a dosing unit (250) to supply reducing agent to an exhaust duct (240) for exhaust cleaning. A motor vehicle (100) is equipped with the device.

  • Patent number: 9199198
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method pertaining to SCR systems for exhaust cleaning whereby liquid is supplied to a feed device via which it is supplied to a dosing unit at a consumption point of the SCR system. The method includes continuously determining cumulative amounts of liquid dosed via the dosing unit. Need for replacement or cleaning of a filter unit for said liquid is also determined on the basis of the cumulative amounts of liquid dosed. The method further includes dosing at least part of the liquid supplied via the feed device and feeding undosed liquid back in a return flow to enable it to be supplied again to the feed device. Also disclosed is a computer program product that includes code for a computer for implementing the disclosed method.

  • Publication number: 20130111885
    Abstract: A method pertaining to an HC dosing system for cleaning exhaust gases from an engine (150). A dosing unit supplies fuel to an exhaust duct (240): Determining (s340) whether there is an undesired temperature level of the dosing unit. If that is found, removing (s360) warmed fuel from the dosing unit (250) by supplying it to the vehicle's exhaust duct (240), entailing calculating (s350) and removing an amount of fuel based on a prevailing temperature of the dosing unit (250), or removing (s360) a predetermined amount in the form of substantially all of the warmed fuel of the dosing unit and transmitting it to the exhaust duct. Also computer programme product containing programme code (P) for a computer (200; 210) for implementing the method. Also to a device and a motor vehicle (100) which is equipped with the device are disclosed.
