Certification of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) in Brazil is mandatory and regulated by Inmetro.
The Diesel Exhaust Fluid can be certified in bulk (model 5) or packaged (model 5 or 7).
But what are these models we are talking about?
It is the model that defines how the conformity assessment system of the company and its products will be carried out.
Model 5: includes the assessment and approval of the supplier’s Quality Management System through audits and tests on samples collected both in the factory and in the store.
Model 7: batch certification, which is evaluated through tests on the packaged product. This modality applies to suppliers dedicated to packaging and / or importing the commerce.
