Capacities
Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual,
“Fluid Recommendations” for information about the
fluids which are acceptable for this engine.
Lubricant Refill Capacities
The refill capacities for the engine crankcase reflect
the approximate capacity of the crankcase or sump
plus standard oil filters. Auxiliary oil filter systems will
require more oil. Refer to the Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) specifications for the capacity of
the auxiliary oil filter.

These values are approximate capacities for the crankcase oil
sump which include the standard oil filters that are installed at
the factory. Engines with auxiliary oil filters will require more oil.
Refer to the OEM specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary
oil filter.
Coolant Refill Capacities
To maintain the cooling system, the total cooling
system capacity must be known. The capacity of the
total cooling system will vary. The capacity will
depend on the size of the radiator (capacity). Table 4
should be completed by the customer for the
maintenance of the cooling system.

Fluid
Recommendations
(Diesel
Exhaust
Fluid
(DEF))
General
Information
Diesel
Exhaust
Fluid
(DEF)
is
a
liquid
that
is
injected
into
the
aftertreatment
system
before
Selective
Catalytic
Reduction
(SCR).
This
system
of
injecting
the
DEF
into
the
exhaust
will
reactor
in
the
SCR
system.
In
engines
equipped
with
SCR
emissions
reduction
system,
DEF
is
injected
in
controlled
amounts
into
the
engine
exhaust
stream.
At
the
elevated
exhaust
temperature,
urea
in
DEF
is
converted
to
ammonia.
The
ammonia
chemically
reacts
with
NOx
in
diesel
exhaust
in
the
presence
of
the
SCR
catalyst.
The
reaction
converts
NOx
into
harmless
nitrogen
(N2)
and
water
(H2O).
Diesel
Exhaust
Fluid
(DEF)
is
also
known
under
other
names
including
Aqueous
Urea
Solution
(AUS)
32,AdBlue,
or
generically
referred
to
as
urea.
NOTICE
Do not use agriculture grade urea solutions.
Do
not use any fluids that do not meet “ISO 22241-1” Re-
quirements in SCR emissions reduction systems.
Use of these fluids can result in numerous problems
including damage to SCR equipment and a reduction
in NOx conversion efficiency.
DEF is a solution of solid urea that is dissolved in
demineralized water to produce a final concentration
of 32.5% urea. DEF concentration of 32.5% is
optimal for use in SCR systems. DEF solution of
32.5% urea has the lowest attainable freeze point of
−11.5° C (11.3° F). DEF concentrations that are
higher or lower than 32.5% have higher freeze
points. DEF dosing systems and “ISO 22241-1”
specifications are designed for a solution that is
approximately 32.5%.
Specification
DEF that is used in Perkins engines must meet the
ISO specification 22241-1 for quality. The ISO
specification 22241-1 requirements are met by many
brands of DEF, including those that carry the AdBlue
or API certification."
