A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical compound or substance designed to mitigate or prevent corrosion, which is the deterioration of materials, particularly metals, due to chemical reactions with their environment. These inhibitors work by forming a protective layer on the metal's surface, blocking or slowing down the corrosion process. Corrosion inhibitors find extensive use in industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, transportation, and infrastructure to prolong the lifespan of equipment, pipelines, and structures, ultimately saving costs and ensuring safety. They play a crucial role in safeguarding the integrity and functionality of metal components exposed to corrosive conditions, such as moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures.
The PAL-Urea is specifically designed to measure the Urea concentration of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), also known as AdBlue* in Europe. Already proven in Europe as the only reliable, go-to instrument for easy and accurate checks, the PAL-Urea is now available in North America in time for new 2010 EPA regulations on diesel emissions.DEF needs to have a 32.5% Urea concentration in order to work effectively in SCR engines. Make sure that the DEF that comes out of your pump and into your tank is pure in quality and safe from potentially harmful additives by using the only digital hand-held refractometer already trusted by European consumers.* AdBlue is a trademark of VDA
