Important Considerations For Units With Ecometers - Fujitsu SCALEOVIEW S17-2 Operating Manual

Preparing to Service Units
CAUTION
Do not use Prover Cans meant for engine fuel with DEF or vice versa. Use stainless steel Prover
Cans for DEF. DEF and engine fuel must not be mixed with each other or contaminated by each
other. Else, damage to a vehicle's engine or pollution control devices could occur. DEF crystallizes
as its water base evaporates. Pouring out liquid will not guarantee that no corrosive DEF remains
in the Prover Can. DEF must not be contaminated with Diesel fuel, contaminants, or other fluids or
materials. Such contamination can cause serious damage to vehicle catalytic converters.
• Conventional fluid handling precautions are also applicable to DEF.
• DEF is non-flammable and not explosive.
• When exposed to air, the water in DEF will evaporate and result in development of urea
• Clean any DEF spill with water and dry the area with clean rags, especially areas that
• DEF can be returned to the storage tank only if it is not contaminated. Contaminated DEF
• DEF is much heavier than fuels such as gasoline. Be careful to avoid injury when lifting
When stored at temperatures above 37 °C (100 °F), DEF may break down into ammonia.
Ensure that you avoid inhaling any toxic ammonia vapors when opening cabinets, tank
vaults, or other areas where DEF may have leaked or been spilled.
DEF can cause serious eye injury if sprayed in the eyes or may affect those with sensitive
skin. Wear protective gloves and eye protection as required. Flush eyes immediately with
water, if sprayed.
Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.

Important Considerations for Units with Ecometers

Units must always use the M008007B010 (gasoline) or M08007B030 (diesel) filter
manufactured by PetroClear
To maintain warranty, the unit requires use of a special filter type as mentioned above. It
potentially allows lesser contaminant to pass through it during normal unit operation as
compared to other filters and prevents nozzles from snapping shut. The filter has a standard
mounting and is similar in cost to current filters. The filter contains a slightly higher load
spring. In addition, it has improved internal sealing. The filter will also potentially improve the
reliability of other hydraulic devices in the dispenser such as valves.

crystals. Crystals may be fine and sharp. They will dissolve in water
contain metallic parts. Ensure that spilled DEF does not re-enter the tank. Spilled DEF can
be slippery and will corrode metallic parts. Wear eye protection and rubber gloves during
any cleanup activity.
must be disposed off in an environmentally safe manner. Do not dump DEF in storm
sewers or any location where the fluid or its constituents may enter a waterway.
