Transfer Unit

The transfer unit pumps the urea-water solution from the passive reservoir to the active reservoir. There is a screen in the inlet port of the pump.

This pump is designed as a diaphragm pump. It operates in a similar way to a piston pump but the pump element is separated from the medium by a diaphragm. This means there are no problems regarding corrosion.
