OPW Fueling Components, a Dover Company and provider of commercial and retail fueling equipment, has reached an exclusive private label distribution agreement with ELAFLEX, Hamburg, Germany. The long-term, private-label agreement allows OPW Fueling Components to distribute ELAFLEX's Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) nozzles in the United States and Canadian markets.
DEF is not a fuel or fuel additive, but an operating fluid for Selective Catalytic Reduction technology that is used in diesel-powered vehicles. It is injected into the exhaust system of diesel-powered vehicles to meet the 2010 EPA standards for reduced nitrogen oxide emissions. ELAFLEX, a manufacturer of nozzles, refueling hoses, fittings, couplings, and rubber expansion joints, offers a complete line of nozzles for dispensing DEF.
