What is the Opel blueinjection technology?
BlueInjection is the cutting-edge SCR diesel technology from Opel that uses AdBlue®* to further reduce the level of nitrogen oxides and work towards cleaner emissions.
- The innovative SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology: BlueInjection is a part of Opel´s exhaust gas after treatment system.
- The BlueInjection technology directly injects AdBlue® into the exhaust pipe triggering a chemical reaction that reduces harmful nitrogen oxides emissions, by converting them into nitrogen and water vapor, which are harmless to the environment.
- AdBlue® is a clean, non-toxic, non-flammable, and odorless fluid that consists purely of 32.5% urea and 67.5% water.
*AdBlue® is a registered trademark from Verband der Automobilindustrie e.V.

When to refill?
Cars fitted with the BlueInjection system need regular AdBlue® top-ups also in between recommended service intervals. But don´t worry, an indicator in the dashboard will inform you when levels are running low.
Each AdBlue® tank is equipped with sensors that will trigger a series of messages when the fluid is running low. Please refer to the owners manual for details.
Attention! If the AdBlue® tank is depleted, the system will need a top-up of at least 10l before the commercial vehicle can be restarted.

What is adblue®?
As it is mostly water, it freezes at -11°C (a 32.5% concentration is the lowest freezing point of a urea water solution), so to allow the vehicle to run under all conditions, all AdBlue® tanks are equipped with a heater that will defrost sufficient liquid for the emission reduction.
