The UDA is designed to operate only with Urea diluted with water in the ratio of 32.5% in weight as defined in the ISO
22241-1 Standard.
The system has to supply the UDA with liquid urea at 5°C minimum and +55 °C maximum (Urea temperature can reach
+85°C but only in peaks (duration ~ 30 min maximum, 24 hours minimum between each peak, total duration: 500h).
Heated lines are recommended to maintain the media temperature. The integrator has to validate the heating efficiency to
allow the doser to release the pressure when turning off the system. If this is not possible the integrator shall implement
an safety procedure by shutting off the doser before the lines got frozen to allow the pressure release.
Take contact with Emitec if other fluids would be used.
THE UREA SUPPLY FROM THE TANK MUST BE FILTERED, NO PARTICLES HIGHER THAN 100µm
ARE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE DOSER.
BEFORE TO OPERATE THE DOSER, UREA AT THE PORTS HAS TO BE WITHIN THE SPECIFIED
TEMPERATURE RANGE, FREE OF CRISTALS AND ICE.
Over customer filter lifetime, pressure loss shall not exceed more than 80mbar
The cleanliness test methods should be according to ISO 16232
Doser contamination resistance:
In the table, figures are given by using contaminant nature according to ISO 12103 A3.
IT IS THE USER RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK ABOUT CORRELATION WITH STANDARD REGARDING
CONTAMINANT CHARACTERISTICS (NATURE, DENSITY AND SIZE).
The flow into the suction line connected to port B of the UDA appears only during the UDA suction phase. The suction
flow is pulsated with a max peak flow about 25 liters/hour whatever the dosing demand is.
The suction flow pulse frequency increases with the dosing volume.
The suction line with all its accessories as fitting connection has to be designed to be absolutely sealed working in
depression.
The return line from port D has to be designed in such way that the return line pressure never exceeds and absolute
dynamic pressure of 1,5 bars. If the return line pressure measurement is performed on the installation, the pressure gage
has to be able to catch dynamic pressure pulses.
THE UREA FLOW INSIDE THE SUCTION LINE TO PORT B IS MAX. 25 LITERS PER HOUR DEPENDING
ON REQUESTED DOSING FLOW
CONTAMINATION COULD PREVENT THE UDA FROM OPERATING
5.2 Air
The UDA is designed to operate with dry clean air coming out from an Air Processing Unit. Maximum temperature of air
must be as low as possible to avoid crystals formation.
The UDA air pressure inlet at port A have to be kept between 6 to 10 bars for proper operation.
The UDA could operate with air inlet pressure up to 12 bars peak wise.
Nozzle characteristics as per DBE 567. The nozzle design is under customer’s responsibility , nevertheless it has to
match with the characteristics as per DBE 567. Changes will request to be tested to see influence on droplet size, air
consumption, backpressures,…
AIR SUPPLY FROM APU MUST BE COMPLIANT WITH STANDARD ISO 8573 CLASS 2 FOR DEW
POINT AND CLASS 3 FOR OTHERS AIR PROPERTIES
IT IS CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY TO STOP THE SYSTEM WHEN AIR PRESSURE IS OUT OF
SPECIFIED RANGE
Air Flow consumption for specific application as nozzle or backpressure can be estimated by Emitec on request.
Note that the air flow decrease when the urea flow increase.
AIR IS ALWAYS FLOWING (PERMANENT AIR CONSUMPTION) WHEN THE UDA IS ON DOSING MODE
EVEN WHEN THE PUMP IS NOT DOSING UREA
